The iconic building housing the Courvoisier house in Jarnac, founded in 1828, is located on the banks of the Charente River in the town center. A former trading site and historic winery, it retains a strong connection to history, particularly with Napoleon, who made the house world famous by taking his cognac into exile. The site includes a museum retracing this rich history as well as a Renard winery, a prestigious storage facility still in use today. Courvoisier perpetuates the art of distillation, aging, and blending there, offering visitors wine tourism experiences that combine heritage and expertise. The romantic setting, close to a lock and a water reserve, underscores its historical and natural local roots.

HISTORY OF THE HOUSE OF HINE In 1791, Thomas Hine (1775-1822), then aged 16, left his native land on the south coast of England to go to France… in the middle of the French Revolution. He went to Jarnac, Charente, where he was hired as a clerk in the Ranson et Delamain trading house, which produced his father’s favourite cognac. James Delamain (1738-1800), a Huguenot who had emigrated from Ireland, founded the trading house in 1763 with his father-in-law Jean-Isaac Ranson. On 3 October 1797 (13 Brumaire Year VI), Thomas Hine married Françoise Élisabeth Delamain, daughter of James Delamain and Marie Ranson. In 1817, the Ranson et Delamain house was liquidated, the heirs having been unable to agree on the succession. The eponymous son-in-law founded Thomas Hine & Co, and his cousins Paul Roullet and Henri Delamain (James' grandson) founded the Maison Roullet et Delamain seven years later, which would become Delamain et Cie. The links between the two Protestant Jarnac families remained close, and Thomas Hine's great-granddaughter, Adrienne Hine (1850-1922) married Philippe Delamain (1847-1902) - they had sons Jacques and Robert Delamain. Today, as in Thomas Hine's time, the Hine establishments line the banks of the Charente in Jarnac. The logo is inspired by Hine's speaking arms, hind meaning doe in Old English. He is lying down, his head turned backwards, symbolically looking towards England2. In 1962, Hine was granted the Royal Warrant of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, and became the official supplier of cognac to the Court of England. In 1987, the company was bought by Moët Hennessy. In 2003, it became the property of the CL Financial group, which emerged from the Angostura group. The House was bought in 2013 by the Edv company. TYPOLOGY OF HINE EAUX DE VIE The House of HINE is located on the banks of the Charente, in the heart of the Cognac region.

Castle with a fairly compact architecture, rich in details and various corbels that seem to come out of a Walt Disney story. It doesn't look very well maintained, what a pity!

Gondeville is noted in 1252, during an exchange between Jean Rot, squire, lord of Châteauneuf and Sallomon de Gondeville, knight. The lords of Gondeville have been known since the 13th century. They had the right of high, medium and low justice. In compensation for work carried out on the Charente, they had obtained the right to collect a bushel of salt on each barge of salt going up the course of the river. They came under the lordship of Bouteville. But Gondeville was not a parish and depended on that of Saint-Même. Towards the end of the 14th century, lived Foulques de Gondeville who was succeeded by his son Armand. Then came Jean Bouterouhe, whose daughter Agnès, married Guillaume de Cruc. The latter thus became lord of Gondeville and left this lordship to his heirs. His granddaughter, Magdeleine de Cruc, ceded Gondeville to Jean de La Rochebeaucourt, younger son of the house of Saint-Même and received in exchange the land of Courpignac, in Saintonge (May 10, 1590). In the early years of the 17th century, the heirs of Jean de La Rochebeaucourt sold the land of Gondeville to Samuel de Lanauve, adviser to Parliament, which was acquired in 1655 by Pierre Laisné, sieur du Chardonneaux. In 1664, he had a lawsuit with Isaac de Culant, lord of Saint Even, about the enclave of Gondreville, which he succeeded in having erected into a parish. In May 1683, he reiterated his request to King Louis XIV for a church to be built in the town. It was finally built by his son-in-law Mr de Nanclas in 1700 and thanks to a grant of 1000 pounds granted by the King. It was demolished by the storm of February 20, 1879 between 1879 and 1880 under the direction of architect Augustin Landry. New restorations took place at the beginning of the 20th century, in particular according to the plans of the architect Luis Martin.

The construction of this building accompanies other buildings from the end of the 19th century, residences of owners of cognac houses. The sponsor of this château would be Baptiste Vert, manager of various cognac companies. It is part of a park that slopes down to the river. The terrace on which it is built is delimited by a stone balustrade serving as a belvedere, at the foot of which a basin with a rockery pierced with caves has been built. The house is formed by a central body supported by two rectangular wings framing a gallery open to the south; two pavilions ending in a round tower to the north, connected by a distribution corridor and framing a protruding winter garden. The building rises on a ground floor on a base, a floor and an attic. Each level is strongly marked by a particular modenature: band, sculpted frieze. The wall apparatus contributes to the variety of this set, each constituent element of which has an original detail: arch frieze, carved door frame ... The interior decor is due to artists of a certain renown: earthenware, decor painted, ironwork ... The most original part of this set is the winter lounge located to the north. It has a mosaic floor, a stucco trellis ceiling, glass slabs, paintings by Lévigne.
