History of Cognac de Montleau:

The Montleau family’s origins go back more than 400 years. They are a branch of the famous La Rochefoucauld family, who has ties to the English royal family. The Montleau family developed some “Eaux de vie Vielle de Cognac” in the mid 19th century which became highly appreciated in the Parisian upper-class and the Russian court. According to “The Last Romanov” by Dora Levy Mossanen, Cognac de Montleau was a favourite Cognac of Tsar Alexander III and Nicolas II of Russia.

Château de Villars, where the Montleau family descendants and Cognac de Montleau brand is based, has its foundations in the Middle Ages. The château was built in the end of the 15th century and was owned by François I, King of France from 1515 until 1547. The King, who was born in Cognac, often visited Château de Villars to participate in hunting events with the court.

Cognac de Montleau today:

After more than a seventy year hiatus in production, the current owner and master blender Alexandre de Brou de Laurière, restarted the Cognac de Montleau company and registered the trademark in 2014.

The Montleau family descendants produce their cognac in Château de Villars, using the ancestral traditions and the long ageing process passed down through their family and the history of the castle itself. They have around 40 hectares of vineyards in both the fins bois and borderies terroirs and produce a range of cognacs made from a blend of these.
