Caves à vin- Maisons des vins Charente

The creation of Meukow dates from the th century. In 1850, Auguste-Christophe and Gustav Meukow, two brothers from Silesia, were sent to France by Tsar Alexander II to supply the Russian court in cognac waters in Cognac. After several trips, they decided to install a commercial office in the town of Cognac and founded the House A.C. MEUKOW & Co on August 1 ^st, 1862. The brand grew rapidly and is now distributed in more than 80 countries.

Today, the Maison house reveals its treasures to visitors, in the heart of Cognac. In a décor that blends with tradition and modernity, the house is discovering its history and revealing some secrets of manufacturing. An indispensable visit for who loves Cognac, for architectural lovers… and others!

Beyond the chic, understated front of La Cave de la Madeleine, reminiscent of an old-fashioned boutique, the interior is just as elegant, with attractive flooring and a vaulted cellar where you can take part in tastings, events and wine and food pairing advice.

Carefully selecting the "magicians" as he calls them, this attentive and friendly caviste offers wines from France, from Alsace crus to south-western varietals, and spirits, mostly French, but also foreign, such as rare Japanese whiskies, in all over 200 references.
