L'Ecomusée du Cognac
All roads lead to… the Écomusée du Cognac!
SHARING – KNOW-HOW – CONVIVIALITY – PASSION.
Since 1850, at Domaine des Bessons, the Tesseron family has cultivated vines, but also and above all: a way of life where know-how and conviviality meet.
Through different spaces: amphitheater and its short film, winemaker's museum, distillery, aroma cellar, P'tit Garage – the visitor is led to discover the soul of the place, the time of aging, the secrets of Cognac and its alliances from elsewhere.
The Cognac Ecomuseum: a true sensory experience to savor… right up to the tasting, on the terrace or on the Mirador, overlooking a sea of vines… 2 hours minimum visit!
A quiz in the form of a treasure hunt can accompany you throughout your visit for a more playful and fun discovery of our site.
A guinguette (open-air café) at the rear of our estate, by the pond, where you can eat and spend a warm and friendly moment from May to September!
