🌟Spirits enthusiasts and professionals, what you don't know about Armagnac could radically transform your perspective on it.
SPOILER: sound ON, wait for the “reverse” effect !
Inspired by Porsche's iconic campaign, Château Arton has created this video to question 5 preconceptions about Armagnac :
❌ No, Armagnac is not just an artisanal spirit
❌ No, Armagnac does not necessarily need blending
❌ No, Armagnac cannot be good if the wine isn't
❌ No, its quality does not depend on its age...
❌ No, Armagnac is not a brandy. Well, not entirely...
Our goal @arton2757 ? Reform Armagnac.
A daring mission indeed!
But it is part of a story that started in 1986 when our founder Patrick de Montal created the very first Blanche Armagnac.
Since then, Château Arton has never stopped explaining why Armagnac was such a SPECIAL spirit.

If you only had to remember three words :
AGRICULTURAL
The dedicated Armagnac alembic (short column still) distills at a very low alcohol proof 56% (whisky, cognac are above 72%, Vodka over 96%).
= 44% of organic matter remains alive in Armagnac.
Thus, Armagnac retains the agricultural origin of its raw material : the wine.
NATURAL
It is not the age that makes a good Armagnac but the quality of the wine that is distilled, and that of the barrel in which it rests.
The natural evolution of the wine in the barrel makes it possible to reach vibrant aromatic complexities without blending.
MODERN
Armagnac waited 700 years to shine.
Behind its modernity lies the progress of innovative & sustainable viticulture.
Because in France (1st wine country in the world), innovation feeds the wine know-how.
Enjoy, reflect, and follow us to reform the Armagnac appellation.
A big thank you to Théo CHARCHAUDE, our graphic designer, who took ownership of the project.
