The story
Available references link the label to Château de Lignères, a wine-growing and ageing estate in the Charente region (Cognac area) with origins in the 19th century. Ownership and production activity at the site have historically been associated with various Cognac maisons; the Bisquit brand (Bisquit & Dubouché) is frequently associated with Château de Lignères-labelled bottles in the product sheets consulted.
Production philosophy
When presented as "Château de Lignères", production is described as focused on a "single estate" approach (production carried out entirely on-site), emphasizing provenance and in-house work from harvest to ageing.
Territory

Production method
Product technical sheets indicate double distillation in alambic charentais and ageing in French oak casks; packaging found online for the 10-year version reports these technical indications.
