Meanwhile, in Angeac Champagne, Michael Boinaud is recommissioning the two family pot-stills, rekindling their operation.After a period of time under French Spirits Group, De Luze was purchased by the Boinauds, who brought the brand back to the Grande Champagne region of Cognac, where Alfreds production took place years ago 1862.The Boinaud family owns the largest vineyard of the Cognac Appellation; over 400 hectares in the Grande Champagne region.
