Located in the picturesque Bons Bois region of Cognac, the Domaine du Chêne is an authentic, traditional vineyard established in 1865. The Domaine itself is consistently striving for success, transmitting their tradition and authenticity into every Cognac they produce. In doing so, the house controls everything on-site, from farming to distillation and even bottling, they ensure high quality and unique products with every batch.
Decanted in an elegant and simple bottle design, this XO Heritage Cognac proves that, whilst presentation is important - it’s what’s on the inside that counts the most. Nevertheless, its copper highlights are revealed in the topaz dress of this jewel from Domaine du Chêne Jean Doussoux.
Extra Old XO Cognacs speak for themselves so it is commonly advised to let the aromas speak for themselves by serving the Cognac neat or with a splash of water. Alternatively, if you are a more experimental Cognac drinker, Cognac cocktails are an exciting way to experience the flavours of an eaux-de-vie in a different light.
Located at the heart of the Romanesque Saintonge province is Domaine du Chêne, which has remained a family estate for several generations since Jean-Baptiste Doussoux bought his first still in 1865.
The vineyard now covers 80 hectares growing several different grapes, including rare and old varieties like the Folle Blanche, among other classic varieties such as the Ugni Blanc.
The vineyards themselves are over 80 years old and today produce a range of bespoke products including their "Domaine du Chêne" range and Cognac "Jean Doussoux".
