About Remy Martin
Rémy Martin was founded in 1724 by a young winegrower in Cognac and remains one of the oldest houses in the category. Its history includes an important early milestone in 1738, when King Louis XV granted Rémy Martin the rare right to plant new vines in recognition of the quality of its cognac.
The house expanded internationally under Paul-Émile Rémy Martin, adopted the Centaur as its emblem in 1870, and later built much of its modern identity around Fine Champagne Cognac, with Rémy Martin Fine Champagne VSOP launched in 1927.
Rémy Martin is especially significant for its long focus on Grande Champagne and Petite Champagne eaux-de-vie, and the house says it is the only major cognac house specialising exclusively in Cognac Fine Champagne. That direction was firmly established in 1948, when André Renaud decided Rémy Martin would produce only cognac from those two crus.
The range now runs from VSOP and 1738 Accord Royal through to XO and Louis XIII.
