Born to a family of barrel makers and landowners of forests in the Corr\u00e8ze region, Henri Peyrat (1885\u20131969) soon developed a great interest in wines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He created his own company right after the First World War, developing a business in\u00a0wines and spirits<\/span>\u00a0in the early 1920s and soon becoming a respected, well-known n\u00e9gociant throughout the region. His wines and spirits came from all across France, especially its southern vineyards (mainly Bordeaux) and also Algeria. From the company\u2019s cellars and offices in the heart of Cognac,\u00a0Henri Peyrat<\/span>\u00a0carefully cultivated solid relationships with the producers and his most important suppliers in order to ensure a constant provision, in quality as well as quantity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For thirty years, this business flourished under the management of its creator, and in 1948 Henri\u2019s son,\u00a0<\/strong>Jean Peyrat<\/span>, took the reins of what had grown to become a well-known and highly-esteemed company. Attentive to developing trends in the world at this time, he decided to orient the distribution of his\u00a0Cognac<\/span>\u00a0to new markets that were increasingly captivated by this elegant, intense French spirit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Jean\u2019s oldest son,\u00a0Henri<\/span>, joined the company in 1968 to oversee export of the\u00a0Cognac<\/span>\u00a0to foreign markets. His brother,\u00a0Philippe<\/span>, joined him after gaining experience in several European countries, and today manages the company. Philippe\u2019s children, in turn, have become part of this great familial adventure:\u00a0Cl\u00e9mence<\/span>\u00a0is now in charge of marketing and communications, and\u00a0\u00c9douard<\/span>\u00a0is responsible for commercial development in France and abroad.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Born to a family of barrel makers and landowners of forests in the Corr\u00e8ze region, Henri Peyrat (1885\u20131969) soon developed a great interest in wines.
