The History

The father and daughter team of Francis and Elodie manage a state-of-the-art production empire underneath the umbrella of Domaines Francis Abécassis, with each brand boasting its own distillery. 

For nearly a century, Cognac Leyrat has been renowned for the remarkable elegance of its old Fins Bois eaux-de-vie. An exceptional estate, located on the top of a hill with remarkable chalky subsoil, the Chez Maillard vineyard produces a very fruity and aromatic wine from its 222 acres. The distillation is performed on the lees with very round heads, to give finesse and softness to the eaux-de-vie, while the maturation period is specifically designed to preserve freshness and delicacy. In order to highlight their great complexity, some of the Leyrat Cognacs are aged for a very long time, often even several decades, ideally in the Paradis cellar. The combination of typical Fins Bois clay mixed with the chalky soils at Chez Maillard reveals fruity notes and refined touches of white blossom. It is this elegance and aromatic richness that makes Leyrat the flagship brand for gastronomy pairings at Domaines Francis Abécassis.
