Adapted from a 16th century Gascony recipe, the Floc de Gascogne is a blend of fresh grape juice with young Armagnacs from our property.
Typical of the Bas‐Armagnac area with acid soil dominated by varying types of sand.
Free‐run juice from light pressing of the grapes, followed by settling and decanting of the must.
The following step remains the same for the white & red Floc: fresh grape juice and young Armagnacs are blended in a closed vat. Then, the Floc is left to settle until the end of the winter. Later, the Floc de Gascogne is still the subject to utmost care: racking, fining, filtering, cold stabilization.
