What it tastes like.

Present on the finest tables of France, hailed by the specialized press as among the best of the Grande Champagne, the Cognacs Francois Voyer reflect the history of a family, which is delighted to make you share its passion. Even if a cocktail always suits a Napoleon, you will better appreciate its delicacy dry or on the rocks, or with mineral or still water. Progressively, the multiplicity of aromas will come to you. Tasting Notes: Nose: Down among the flowers: touches of rose, jasmine, clove pink, combined with the first flavours of fruits: peach, plums. The old maturation of this Cognac has given it its vanilla aroma and this light and sweet aroma that only an old Cognac has. Palate: A woody appearance, powerful but flexible and above all very elegant.

About Francois Voyer.

Cognac — Grande Champagne 1er Cru (Verrières) ·Est. 1875

François Voyer is a five-generation Cognac estate in Verrières, in the heart of Grande Champagne. The Chauchet-Voyer family had been growing vines in Verrières and Ambleville since the French Revolution; François Voyer formalised the Cognac brand in 1875. The estate now covers 70 hectares including 8 hectares of Grande Champagne 1er Cru around Saint-Même-les-Carrières. The house operates as a single-estate producer — distilling and bottling everything in-house. Pierre Vaudon took over in 2017 as the fifth generation.

  • Temperature

    Room temperature. No ice for the first pour — taste the spirit before diluting.

  • Glassware

    Tulip or copita — NOT a balloon snifter (drops the aroma).

Bottle questions

Before you open it.

A few practical answers for storage, delivery, and choosing the right bottle.

How should I store it before opening?

Keep it somewhere cool, dark, and steady. Wine prefers cellar temperature; spirits are happier away from heat and direct sunlight.

How long will it keep once opened?

Wine changes quickly after opening; spirits and liqueurs generally hold longer if capped tightly and kept out of heat. If it is a special bottle, ask before opening and the team can give product-specific guidance.

Can I ask for a similar bottle?

Yes. Contact Caravan with this bottle name and the occasion; the team can suggest a close match, a safer gift, or a step up or down in price.

How is it packed for delivery?

Orders are packed in bottle-safe cartons. If anything arrives damaged or looks wrong, contact the team with your order number and a photo so they can sort the next step.

What about hot weather shipping?

The team avoids making one-size-fits-all promises around heat and carrier timing. For heat-sensitive or cellar bottles, contact Caravan before ordering and they can advise the safest dispatch window.

Why Caravan backs Francois Voyer

Cognac — Grande Champagne 1er Cru (Verrières)

The Chauchet-Voyer family has been cultivating vineyards in Verrières and Ambleville — both villages in the Grande Champagne sub-appellation of Cognac — since the French Revolution. François Voyer formalised the Cognac brand under his own name in 1875 and built the house into a recognisable single-estate producer. Five generations have continued the work; in 2017 Pierre Vaudon took over the operation as the fifth-generation steward. The family vineyard is now organised around La Maison François Voyer's holdings of 70 hectares, including 8 hectares of Grande Champagne 1er Cru around Saint-Même-les-Carrières.

François Voyer works as a single-estate Cognac house: only Grande Champagne grapes, distillation and bottling done in-house, no purchasing of finished spirit from other estates. The range covers VS (Terre de Grande Champagne, 5 yrs), VSOP, Napoléon (15 yrs), XO Gold (20–30 yrs), Hors d'Âge, and the rare single-vintage Lot releases including the Lot 93 cask-strength expression. The single-estate model — increasingly uncommon in Grande Champagne, where most production is sold to négociants — gives Voyer's wines a consistent stylistic signature across the age tiers.
