The name is a tribute to Cardinal Pedro González de Mendoza, a steadfast supporter of Christopher Columbus, helping convince the Catholic monarchs to sponsor his journey to the New World.

The cask itself is just part of the equation. What’s equally important is how the brandy is aged. In the case of Brandy de Jerez the spirit is matured in the solera method, meaning that casks are never fully emptied but rather continuously topped off so that each cask holds a scale of different ages, with the average age increasing as time goes by. It’s also the solera aging process that determines the different varieties of Brandy de Jerez. Types of Brandy de Jerez

The Dutch had for many years bought the local wine either for consumption as wine or for distilling to make gin or liqueurs. It soon became apparent that wine in its distilled form could be shipped more economically, and Cognac became a centre for brandy production. The wine is mainly made from the Ugni Blanc grape and is double distilled in pot stills known as “alembiques Charentais”. It is aged statically in French oak barrels of 350 litres and seasoned with young spirits. Cognac received its Appellation d’Origine Contrôllee (AOC) in 1936.
