Armagnacs Vieillissement Armagnac Dartigalongue

In 1969 Pierre Dartigalongue set up his distillery at Salles D'Armagnac. Each year the finest white wines are distilled into armagnac. From the moment it leaves the still the colourless, crystal-clear eau de vie is stored in seasoned 400 litre oak casks called "pièces".

The armagnac is left to age for many years in our unusual 19 th century two-storey "chais". Over a period of time the tannic matter mingles with the liquid ; evaporation produces "the Angels' share"; the eau de vie takes on colour and its aroma develops.

Pascal's descendants, now the fifth generation, continue to produce fine armagnac in the time-honoured way and are proud to preserve the family tradition down to the last detail.
