Pineau

Pineau des Charentes is one of the hidden treasures of the luxury French spirits world — a refined aperitif made by blending freshly pressed grape juice with newly distilled Cognac eau-de-vie. This blend is then aged in oak casks, developing rich, smooth layers of honeyed fruit, nuts and soft spice. Though often likened to port or sherry, Pineau is unique in both method and taste — a perfect companion to cheese, fruit puddings or simply served chilled before a meal.

At Brandyclassics, we offer an exclusive selection of Pineau for gifting — sourced from traditional Cognac producers and ideal for those seeking thoughtful, sophisticated gifting ideas. Whether given for a birthday, anniversary or summer celebration, it offers something truly memorable.

We also recommend the Pineau Royale — our signature cocktail made with Pineau, fresh lemon juice, sparkling water and a measure of Hermitage Cognac. Light, elegant and refreshing, it’s perfect for summer entertaining.

“I first ordered a bottle as a wedding gift, then again for a summer garden party. We served Pineau Royale and it was the absolute highlight — refreshing, different, and utterly delicious. I’ll be back for more!” C. Fenner
