Cognac is distilled from grapes, and Pineau des Charentes is a blend of that region’s grape juice, and the Cognac brandy itself. The result is a light, pleasant French aperitif that is just a little boozier than wine, with a touch of natural sweetness and a strong fruit character. Park Pineau des Charentes is best served chilled or on the rocks and is often used in craft cocktails or food pairings. Delicate and floral on the nose and pleasant on the palate, Park Pineau is composed of 76% grape juice and 24% eaux-de-vie aged for a minimum of 24 months.
