How it is made

In 1838, Pascal DARTIGALONGUE founded his Armagnac house in Nogaro, in the Gers, a region that produces some of the finest growths. Their expertise has been handed down through five generations, each carrying out with dedication the painstaking and demanding work of ageing. Every year, they distil white wines from the most prestigious origin: Bas-Armagnac. Their eaux-de-vie mature in oak casks and are kept for many years in their centuries-old cellars.
