Who?
Grape of the Art. Domaine d’Espérance is the Armagnac producer with whom they collaborated and from whose own stock they made this excellent Armagnac selection.
Domaine d'Espérance is a distinguished Armagnac producer located in the heart of the Grand Bas Armagnac region in Gascogne, France, about an hour and a half from Bordeaux. Acquired in 1990 by Jean-Louis and Claire de Montesquiou, the estate was revitalized by the couple who passionately restored its renown. The couple initially focused on wine production while allowing the Armagnac to age gracefully. Today, the Domaine is celebrated for its exceptional vintages and blends, which have garnered numerous medals at the Paris Agricultural Competition (one of France’s most respected and cherished awards to possess), among so many others. The entire process, from vine growing to distillation and barrel aging, is meticulously overseen by a dedicated team, ensuring the best Armagnac ends up in bottle and then in our glasses.
