Interesting Facts

Rigorous design rules ensure the richness, complexity and high quality of the Armagnacs Chateau Laballe, Vintage, Bas Armagnac AOC, 1981 .

Producer's description

The history of the Laballe family winery began in 1820, when Jean Dominique Laudet, after returning from the West Indies after 20 years of trading in spices, decided to finally fulfill his dream of life and devote the rest of his life to the production of the noble French drink Armagnac. It was then that he acquired the Chateau de Laballe in the heart of Bas Armagnac Landais in the Grand Bas Armagnac region. The estate then included 600 hectares of forest and agricultural land, and employed 120 people. Big business did not frighten Jean Dominique, who wanted to produce Armagnac. The wine business has been passed down from generation to generation, and today Cyril and Julie Laballe are at the helm.

The vineyards of the farm are located on rare soils called "Sables Fauves", which gives freshness and minerality to wines and Armagnacs. The Laballe family strives to show through their drinks the uniqueness of the terroir, from the processing of the vines to the process of winemaking and aging.
