Distillation and production
Production method
The Maison works primarily with eaux-de-vie from Grande and Petite Champagne, practices double distillation with lees for some parcel cuvées and matures spirits in controlled cellars; blending is central to the assemblage cuvées, while vintage releases highlight single years or parcels.
Distillation
Double distillation typical of the area, with use of the 'sur lies' (distillation on the lees) technique for some parcel cuvées/vintages.
Ageing
Aging in French oak barrels in the Maison's cellars; use of fine-grain staves and, in some cases, second‑fill casks to preserve the fruity expression of the eaux‑de‑vie.
Producer history Hine
The Maison is named after Thomas Hine, an Englishman who settled in Jarnac; the house has been active since the 18th century and is commonly cited with an origin date of 1763. Throughout its history Hine has been noted for its vintage bottlings and Fine Champagne blends. In 2004 Hine acquired the Domaine de Bonneuil, expanding its presence in the Grande Champagne cru.
Production philosophy
Emphasize the quality of eaux-de-vie from elite crus (Grande and Petite Champagne), preserve the terroir's character and produce both refined blends and vintage or single‑cask cognacs that express vineyard typicity.
Territory
Jarnac, in the Cognac region (department Charente). Strong connection with the Grande Champagne cru, where the Domaine Bonneuil is located.
