Anchored in the heart of Gascogne, the Château de Monluc has produced and raised Armagnacs for 5 generations now.
The clay-limestone soils of Ténarèze allow the Armagnacs of the Château de Monluc to display waters of great finesse and beautiful aromatic complexity, as evidenced by this selection of the house selection.
Once distilled, the brandy starts a long aging course in oak barrels in the castle cellars until their bottling.

Dress: This Armagnac XO of the Chateau de Monluc has a gold color with amber reflections.
Nose: The nose is rich, very expressive on notes of dried fruit and honey.
Mouth: The attack is frank and slightly sweet, carried by aromas of wall fruit.
Finish: The end of mouth offers us a good length and aromatic persistence.

The Armagnac Ténarèze, around the city of Condom, which some baptize the capital of Ténarèze, covers the northwest part of the Gers and the south of Lot-et-Garonne (around Mézin and to Nérac).
Its brandy comes from Boulbena and clay-limestone soils mainly composed of brick clay silts as well as sands and pebbles.
Ténarèze is the second producer region of Armagnac (behind the Bas-Armagnac) with 32% of surfaces identified for production.

If the story sticks to the skin of the castle, the vineyard, too, enriches a wine inheritance that has run for many centuries. "The tradition of excellence of the wines of the Haut-Pays Gascon is reborn before our eyes," likes to say the current winegrowers of the estate. A vineyard "in full renewal". "Here, you will see less than in other more temperate vineyards from the rows chopped with a cord: our vine keeps its apparent savagery and its vegetable junk to better feed and house its grapes. A return to the sources, to nature, which signs the quality of Monluc wines and brandies.
