About the Chateau

About the Château

GENSAC Armagnac is born from time.
As a historic 13th-century AOC château, our estate carries centuries of knowledge, patience, and respect for craft. Every bottle reflects a deep commitment to traditional, handcrafted methods passed down through generations, guided by the belief that excellence cannot be rushed.

Crafted in the Armagnac Region

Our Armagnac is produced exclusively within the Armagnac region, in strict adherence to its appellation. Carefully selected grape varieties are transformed into a high-acidity white wine, free of sulfites, forming the pure foundation of the spirit. A single distillation preserves the natural character of the grapes, creating an Armagnac of depth, individuality, and remarkable intensity.

Shaped by Time

Time is our most essential collaborator. The spirit rests in new French oak barrels, where it slowly evolves under carefully controlled cellar conditions. Regular airing and meticulous attention allow complexity to unfold year after year, revealing structure, elegance, and a profoundly expressive character shaped by wood, air, and patience.

The GENSAC Terroir

Meter-thick limestone plateaus define the GENSAC landscape and are central to the identity of our Armagnac. Low yields ensure concentration and purity, while careful hand selection guarantees that only the finest grapes are used. Aging exclusively in new French oak barrels further defines our signature style, bringing depth, refinement, and distinction to every expression.

A Modern Vision, Rooted in Tradition

While deeply anchored in heritage, GENSAC looks outward. Our ambition is to bring Armagnac to an international, cosmopolitan audience through a modern sensibility, without ever compromising authenticity.

Organic by Nature

Sustainability is fundamental to who we are. The entire estate is cultivated organically, with deep respect for the soil, biodiversity, and the land that sustains us. GENSAC is proud to be a fully certified organic Armagnac producer.

GENSAC Armagnac is not simply produced.
It is shaped by history, refined by time, and created with intention—an elegant, contemporary expression of one of France’s most enduring spirits.
