Cognac Gilles Brisson

Family Craftsmanship

Cognac GILLES BRISSON is a family estate for four generations, located in Châteaubernard, right in the heart of Grande Champagne, the most prestigious cru of the Cognac appellation.

Since 1989, Cyril Brisson has been managing the estate, passionately perpetuating the know-how passed down from his father. Today, his sons Alexis, Marveen and Loan represent the new generation, ready to carry on the secrets of the family business.

Located just 3 km from the town of Cognac, our estate is one of the last independent family operations in the region. It spans 75 hectares of 100% Ugni Blanc vines. Dedicated to sustainable viticulture, we are CEC (Cognac Environmental Certification) certified Cognac producers.

The Brisson family likes to remind that "perfection takes time", which is why our cognacs age in our cellars well beyond the legal requirements. This patience reveals all the aromatic intensity and silky texture unique to Grande Champagne.
