Overview

Our know-how "from the vine to the glass" allows us to shape a producer's Armagnac from start to finish, young vintages with miraculous aromatic power, a perfect expression of our terroir which highlights the living Armagnac and imposes a new criterion of excellence in the region.

Our pioneering spirit is rewarded when our Armagnacs receive the Prix d'Excellence at the Concours Général Agricole de Paris in 2017, a first in Armagnac.

After a guided tour of the estate, come and taste the full range of our signature Armagnacs, our hand-sewn blends, our vintage cuvées and our Fine Blanche® (the one that gave its name to the AOC Blanche d'Armagnac), during a commented tasting with gourmet pairings. Arton offers a unique aromatic signature and an unprecedented taste experience, the promise of a unique journey in Gascony land.

Haut-Armagnac is not common. It is a land that had
disappeared after phylloxera, which explains its rarity (5% of the
total production of Armagnac). The Montal family is one of
first to replant the vines there in 1991. Because Arton defends the idea
that Armagnac is part of the culture of wine.
This tasting will be an opportunity to savor the whole range
of Armagnacs, from the signature blend to young vintages,
exclusively from the estate's vines.

Two weeks ago my family and I stayed at Chateau Naudou near Puymirol for the wedding of our daughter. During our stay we decided to take a day trip to Chateau Arton, and were treated to one of the absolute finest tours we have ever experienced. Lili greeted us and hosted a tasting of the incredible wines and spirits produced by her family. She oozes passion and knowledge about the chateau, the family, the grapes, the terroir, the wines and the special spirits. Her enthusiasm, her beauty and her charm won us all over and we all ended up purchasing several bottles of this liquid gold! Highly recommended! There is a reason this venue has an overall 4.9 rating! If you visit you will be treated to a wonderfully memorable experience!”

Merci également pour cette dégustation exécutée avec brio par notre hôte (vive la Lorraine) !!!! A découvrir absolument ! Un grand merci
