Hedgerow Planting, Shaping the Sustainable Terroir | Origins
Safeguarding the vines, nature and time of Cognac
Across the Cognac vineyards of Charentes, hedgerows are entering the season of their return to the land.
As steadfast “allies” of winegrowers, these natural guardians not only shield the vines from strong winds and preserve the soils, but also filter and regulate water, store carbon, and provide shelter for local wildlife — all of which are essential to maintaining the ecological balance of the Cognac region.
In the Cognac region, nature and craftsmanship work hand in hand — from hedgerows to vines, from soil to glass, every step reflects our respect for the environment and our dedication to excellence. Every drop of fine Cognac is a masterpiece born of this harmonious land and the savoir-faire passed down through generations.
Each hedgerow stands as a steadfast commitment to sustainability in the Cognac region. Quietly, they safeguard the vineyards and support the cycles of nature, continuously infusing the land with resilience and vitality. As you savor a glass of Cognac, can you also feel the strength and life of this soil softly flowing across your palate, and into your heart?
