Ensuring the continued existence
of raw materials
Ensuring the continued existence of raw materials In Charente, time is an ally of cognac producers. It is responsible for ageing eaux-de-vie and urging the vines to grow. Trees are also raw materials essential to the production of the House’s exceptional products. In the historic Grollet estate, the House of Rémy Martin, in partnership with the National Forestry Office (ONF), planted 825 pedunculated oak seedlings to guarantee their continued existence. Although the plot of land is limited to 0.5 hectare, it is an investment in the future: used to make Louis XIII cognac tierçons, the oaks trees will be ready in a century. The House takes a long-term approach to preserve its raw materials.
Moreover, the House has partnered with a leading player in French Heritage , the Palace of Versailles, by contributing to the creation of the "Admirable Trees" path in the Palace gardens. This marked and audio - guided path presents the estate's exceptional essences. Selected from the Estate's 350,000 trees, the thirty "Admirable Trees" chosen by the House stand out for their botanical rarity, their history and their beauty. These trees include a pedunculated oak tree over 350 years old and a very rare double-headed palm tree from Asia . This patronage and the communication surrounding it also pass on these living memories to future generations and support the work of the Palace's gardeners. Embodying the values shared by the House and the Palace – long-term approach, transmission, expertise – this patronage is also aligned with the ecological vision of the entire Rémy Cointreau Group.
