Armagnac
Produced in the Gascony region in southwest France, armagnac was first introduced in the 12th century, making it the oldest 'eau de vie', pre-dating cognac by about 200 years. Like cognac, armagnac is a brandy named after the area it comes from and is distilled from wines made from the regional grape varieties. The brandy is usually distilled only once in a continuous still and at a lower percentage of alcohol, allowing for the spirit to retain characteristics that would otherwise be stripped in a second distillation. This leads to a showing of more primary fruit and concentrated flavors than cognac and can gain immense complexity given time. Armagnac can be a blend from different vintages and properties like cognac, however, much of its fame is related to its single vintage, single vineyard production. These brandies are minimally produced, characteristically unique and true to the simplicity of its natural origins.
