The Tesseron family has a long heritage in the region, originally serving as a major supplier of aged 'eaux-de-vie' to large cognac houses before releasing spirits under their own name in 2003. Today, the house remains family-owned and is led by Alfred Tesseron, who also oversees the prestigious Bordeaux estate Château Pontet-Canet.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eSpirit Description\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis expression is a blend of reserve stocks crafted primarily from Ugni Blanc grapes, matured for more than a generation in Limousin oak casks within the distillery's thirteenth-century stone cellars.
