The story behind it
The maker
Founded in 1886 by Paul-Emile Rémy Martin II in Machecoul, France, St-Rémy was born out of a desire to create a world-class French brandy after phylloxera devastated the Charente vineyards. Over a century later, the house remains dedicated to selecting only French grapes and maintaining its traditional maturation methods.
How it is made
Rooted in the French art of distillation, St-Rémy has been selecting premium French wine grapes to distill since its inception. The eaux-de-vie are carefully aged in small French oak barrels within the historic distillery & production estate to develop its signature depth.
