Appellation Grande Champagne Contrle. Limited Edition of 16 casks of 450 numbered bottles. Bonneuil 2008 is an unblended single estate cognac from a single harvest that provides the purest and most accurate expression of the Grande Champagnes chalky terroir. Their guiding philosophy is to remain as close as possible to the wine itself and to reveal the distinct character of the Premier Cru cognac soils from which the vines draw their identity. Bonneuil 2008 hails from a vintage that delivered a joyful and well-rounded harvest. Steeped in the light of an Indian summer sunset, The Beach Boys Kokomo rings out like a feel-good hymn in perfect response to the liveliness of the young eau-de-vie. The leisurely summer stroll continues with aromas of fresh cranberries, a gentle tension and the irresistible smoothness of mountain honey.

Distillery Information

Hine Cognac is located in the heart of the Grande Champagne cru, right along the banks of the river Charente. The Hine story dates back to 1550 when the Hine family lived in Beaminster, Dorset, on the south coast of England.The family’s great Cognac journey was to begin in the 18th century: Thomas Hine, a linen merchant, and quite a Cognac connoisseur decided to send his son Thomas to France to learn French and the art of Cognac-making.
