LECARRÉ VS French Brandy is produced by a family-run distiller based in France that is now the 7th generation. Thanks to its expertise in distillation but also in ageing back from 1830, LECARRÉ is committed to highlight the finest brandies. VERY SPECIAL
Distillation and aging – Our raw material is grape. We carefully select acid white grape varieties to produce delicate wines for distillation.
The distillation process is made with two different kind of pot stills; traditional double-distillation copper alembic and “Coffey-type” column still. Double distilling process in copper stills brings smoothness and fruitiness as coffey still brings spiciness and complexity. This distillation process is a key component to reveal LECARRÉ signature and identity.
Following the distillation, LECARRÉ fresh distillates are transferred into French oak barrels to rest and mature slowly in our humid cellars turning them into elegant and mature spirits that will be harmoniously blended by the cellar master. The aging process is essential to develop aromas, colors and complexity of the future blend.
