Cognac is a town in Charente, in southwestern France. The wider Cognac growing region extends across Charente and Charente-Maritime, with some communes in Deux-Sèvres and Dordogne. The town and the growing region are not the same area: producers on this map are spread across the region, not only in central Cognac. The six growing areas, known as crus, describe the geography of the appellation. A producer’s address does not establish where its grapes were grown. Use each place’s visiting information to check access before planning a trip.
