“From grape to wine and from wine to Armagnac, the lineage is crucial. Excellence begins in our vines.” – Patrick de Montal
The Domaine d'Arton Vineyard
The Arton domaine is true terroir. Authentic. Abrupt. A spirited land of rocks and hillsides. A land of contrasts, at once both wild and mapped out. A land where the light, season after season, pulsates within the ochre soils and the warm stones of the charterhouses.
Traceability
The certification of both the provenance and the integrity of our wines and Armagnacs with transparency is our commitment to you. It is a commitment to fundamental quality, which has inspired our winemaking project from its inception. And because there cannot be Armagnac without wine, and there cannot be wine without grapes, planting our own vines was an obvious choice!
Sustainable Winemaking
Master Cooper Gilles Bartholomo
Gilles Bartholomo is a craftsman with hands of gold. He is the last of the master coopers in the region, located in Frêche, in the Landes. He constructs his barrels entirely by hand from Gascon black oak, according to ancestral know-how. These are the same barrels used to age our Armagnacs as well as our wines La Croix Reserve and Victoire. The quality of these pieces is essential in producing an exceptional Armagnac.
