    • Château Arton Haut-Armagnac in the Gers

      Owner Harvesting since 1991, in biodynamic and permaculture conversion.


      Armagnac is not a brandy

      It stands out in the spirits landscape because it keeps the wine alive from which it comes. Its exquisite taste expresses all the aromatic power of the terroir. Our white lands from Haut-Armagnac AOC give our Armagnacs a unique mineral flavor which reveals aromas of flowers and fruits, an aromatic palette with perfect balance.

      This originality led Patrick de Montal to plant his vines to mature his wine and his Armagnac and to consider the vintage published as a "unique piece" as the most accomplished expression. At Arton, we have dedicated ourselves to crafting the purest and most exceptional expressions of Armagnac. Everything, from the vines to the wine, from the wine to the Armagnac, must be produced on the estate and in such a way as to best embody the terroir and know-how of Arton. Expert in vintages and unique pieces, Château Arton is also the cradle of the first white Armagnac , created in 1986.

      After more than forty years spent developing a demanding and innovative wine culture, Patrick and Victoire de Montal have managed to give their Gers estate its letters of nobility. From the creation of Fine Blanche® to the development of vintages of Armagnac published as unique pieces, they have never stopped defying prejudices, succeeding in the challenge of raising their Haut-Armagnac to the rank of best eau-de-French life in 2017 !

      It is this exceptional story that their children Jean and Lili de Montal decided to continue by moving to the estate. Leaving Paris in turn, they bring a new ambition, a bold environmental initiative and a major institutional and cultural project.

    Wow! Just wow! I booked this as a part of my travels, as I wanted to do a proper tour and not just a quick tasting. Didier was amazing! He made me feel so welcome and the whole tour was fascinating, entertaining and joyful, it felt so personal, I absolutely loved it! And then the tasting, what a venue! Absolutely gorgeous. I was very very lucky as I ended up with a private tour essentially, and it is something I will remember forever and Didier's enthusiasm and passion is addictive! I would recommend this to anyone (also, Didier's English was beyond perfect, thank you so much for being so kind)

    Wonderful tour experience. The information mixed with facts was interesting. As a first-time Vinyard visitor, too much information got me bored. The wer cellar experience was very interesting. The wine tasting experience was spectacular.

    What an amazing experience! We were welcomed by Didier (such a nice guy and truly passionate about the incredible work at Arton!) and had a great time… we’ve learned a lot about the whole philosophy behind the production of wine and armagnac at Chateau de Arton. The place is beautiful and it only gets better when you hear the lovely story of the owners. Our time there ended with a tasting of the amazing wines and Armagnac (really the star of the show!). If you are passing by, must make a stop!
