Paul Giraud Cognac

Paul Giraud Cognac is a renowned family-owned estate located in Bouteville, in the heart of the Grande Champagne region, the premier cru of Cognac, where the Giraud family has been crafting exceptional spirits since the mid-17th century. Spanning 50 hectares of Ugni Blanc vineyards on the region’s chalky soils, the estate, now led by Paul-Jean Giraud of the 10th generation and his son Paul, produces Cognacs celebrated for their elegance and finesse. Using traditional methods like hand-harvesting and double distillation in copper pot stills, their eaux-de-vie age for decades in humid cellars, yielding a smooth, floral character with notes of stone fruit, spice, and rancio. Established as a brand in 1976, Paul Giraud offers a range from VSOP to rare bottlings like Héritage, aged over 60 years, embodying a legacy of artisanal excellence and terroir-driven quality.
