ABK6 Cognac is a modern, family-owned house with deep roots in the Grande Champagne region, the Premier Cru of Cognac. Founded by the Abécassis family, the estate is led by Elisabeth and Francis Abécassis, who are committed to a single-estate philosophy, cultivating, distilling, and ageing all their eaux-de-vie from their own vineyards. This complete control from vine to bottle allows ABK6 to craft Cognacs of exceptional purity, character, and finesse, blending traditional savoir-faire with a sleek, modern aesthetic that appeals to a new generation of spirits enthusiasts.

The ABK6 5 Year Old Pineau des Charentes is a standout expression of this tradition, crafted by blending fresh grape must with the estate’s own Cognac eau-de-vie and then aged for a minimum of five years in French oak casks. This extended maturation brings depth, harmony, and complexity to a category often associated with lighter aperitifs, resulting in a Pineau of extraordinary balance and richness.

In the glass, it gleams a deep golden amber, offering a captivating nose of honeyed grape, candied orange peel, ripe apricot, and vanilla, with delicate notes of toasted almond, fig, and oak spice. On the palate, it is silky, rounded, and beautifully layered, with flavours of caramelised fruit, golden raisin, spiced pear, and a touch of rancio, all wrapped in a luscious yet structured texture. The finish is long, warming, and gently sweet, leaving impressions of dried fruit and soft Cognac elegance.

Ideal as a chilled aperitif, paired with foie gras, blue cheese, or fruit-based desserts, or enjoyed on its own, ABK6 5 Year Old Pineau des Charentes offers a refined take on a regional classic, luxurious, authentic, and full of character.
