How it is made

Vinified and distilled on the estate using a traditional Armagnac still, then aged in oak casks: an artisanal production of the highest quality.

The vineyard stands on the rolling green hills to the north-west of Eauze, the capital of Armagnac, where sandy-clay soils alternate with pure sandy soils known as "sables fauves". This distinctive terroir within the Bas-Armagnac zone is celebrated for producing eaux-de-vie of great delicacy and fruit.
