At the Château de La Grange, great care is taken at every stage of the production process to maintain the highest standards of quality.

The family BOURON has produced Cognac for the past five generations. Today, the last grand daughter of Louis Bouron, Madame Monique Parias has the overall responsibility for family operation and specifically, ensuring that each vineyard produces a wine of the highest quality. Mme Parias is assisted by her husband, Bernard Parias. He is responsible for the delicate distilling process, and the subsequent aging and blending processes.

To achieve highest possible quality, La Grange employs twenty specialized wine growers, under the management of Mr. Jean-François Paquet, whose family has worked at La Grange for the past four generations

    Aging: The ageing process commences as soon as the young cognac is placed in cask (fûts de chêne) made of oak from the Limousin forest. Each cask contains about 400 liters of Cognac. They are placed in various Louis Bouron cellars (chais) where the environment, privacy and the lack of light help the ageing process. louisbouroncellar.jpg (52928 bytes)
.

    Blending: This is the most delicate phase, which consists of uniting different Cognacs in various stages of their ageing process, from different growths, in order to produce a product which, after further ageing, will meet all of the qualities of Louis Bouron Cognacs. It is the art and science of the Cellar Master (Mâtre de Chai) who continuously researches and assembles the best of the Petite Champagne, Borderies and a touch of Fins Bois
