Augustin Vallet started his Cognac business in 1866 in Jarnac Champagne, the heart of Petit Champagne. Now, 150 years later, the sixth generation of Laurent Vallet still makes high quality Cognac. From growing the grape to filling the bottles, everything happens on the Chateau. Montifaud is a leading Petit Champagne Cognac, which matures much longer than legally specified. It is over 9 years old and matured on old barrels of French oak.
