Distillery Information

It is distilled from wine usually made from a blend of grapes including Baco 22A, Colombard, Folle blanche and Ugni blanc, traditionally using column stills rather than the pot stills used in the production of cognac, which is made predominantly from ugni blanc grapes.
Armagnac was the first and original brandy in France. This exquisite example pours a bright honey/orange and greets the nose with white flowers and citrus notes. The palate is round with floral tones repeating from the nose alongside plum and ginger followed by a lengthy finish.
Armagnac is produced in the Gascony region of France, which is located to the south of Bordeaux. The region is split into three areas; Bas Armagnac, Tenareze and Haut Armagnac. Often made in small batches by local farmers, Armagnac is not well-known outside of Europe.
Though Armagnac and Cognac are both are brandies distilled from wine, Armagnac is distilled once while Cognac is distilled twice. Only four specific French grape varieties are used to make Armagnac: Baco, Folle Blanche, Colombard, and Ugni Blanc.
