Armagnac

Armagnac lies to the south of Bordeaux and the vineyards are split into three areas: Bas-Armagnac, Ténarèze and Haut-Armagnac. Bas-Armagnac produces what are said to be the most elegant spirits and accounts for 65% of the total production of the region. Ténarèze accounts for most of the rest, as it is often more profitable to sell the wines of Haut-Armagnac as wine ,instead of Armagnac.
