Brand of the Year

Rémy Martin

2024 marks an extraordinary milestone for the Maison Rémy Martin,
which celebrates 300 years of creating exceptional cognacs.

Uniting past, present and future under the slogan “we dream forward”, the house founded in 1724 launched its tercentenary celebrations with a range of year-end limited editions on the theme of 300 years, featuring the iconic centaur with its javelin pointing to the future. In January 2024, it also unveiled an exceptional product, the Coupe 300th Anniversary, a true symbol of its heritage and excellence over three centuries. Lastly, in the heart of Cognac, Rémy Martin celebrated the reopening of its historic house in April 2024, with many other surprises to be unveiled throughout the year.

Linking up our ecosystem

Since 1724, Rémy Martin’s dream of producing exceptional cognac has always been intimately linked to respect for the terroir and all those who give it life, in all facets of the cognac ecosystem. After the Rémy Martin estates obtained High Environmental Value certification in 2012, the Maison started getting its partner winegrowers committed to environmental certification in 2014. Today, 100% of them are taking part in this initiative and 60% of their vineyard area are certified. The Maison aims to source 100% of its eaux-de-vie from certified winegrowing terroirs by 2028.

Towards regenerative viticulture

Today, to protect the terroirs of Grande and Petite Champagne from the effects of climate change, the Maison of Rémy Martin is going one step further and engaging in regenerative viticulture – the only way to guarantee the highest quality eaux-de-vie needed to make exceptional cognac for the next three hundred years. Taking a holistic approach, regenerative viticulture focuses on the health of the vine in constant balance with the natural world around it. This method paves the way for the future, as healthy, more resistant soils retain more water, restore biodiversity and capture more carbon.

An enduring pioneering spirit

While the Rémy Martin estates are already in transition to agroecology, with the aim of converting 250 hectares by 2028, the ability of the Maison to involve its partner winegrowers in the process is also a decisive factor. To ensure that they are fully trained in regenerative viticulture by 2030, Rémy Martin has developed an exclusive programme led by the in-house teams and external experts. For now, the Maison has set up a pioneering group of eight winegrowers from Alliance Fine Champagne to test, learn and communicate about their own transition.
