In the purest family tradition of the Domaine de Charron, Jean-Philippe Balay presents a 1996 vintage faithful to his origins inherited from the soils of Sands Fauves Bas-Armagnacais. This barrel brut, born from the Alambic of the Domaine made in 1940, began its aging in a new barrel. The aromas of undergrowth and fern of this 1996 vintage deliver very rancio smoked tea flavors in the mouth.

Nose: The nose is frank on aromas of tobacco and roasted nuts.
The mouth: we find in the mouth a beautiful balance carried by menthol notes.
Finish: We find at the end of the mouth the first olfactory notes of tobacco as well as a slight wooded.

The Bas-Armagnac, whose capital is Eauze, is west of the appellation. It runs on the Landes and the western part of the Gers. It represents 67% of the areas identified in Armagnac. In this part of the terroir, the floors are sablo simedy, called "sandblasters". Bas-Armagnac brandies are delicate and very fruity.

Discover the house

Following his uncle, Jean-Philippe Balay, a young engineer passionate about rum ... and Armagnac, settled ten years ago to continue the adventure. With a clearly displayed ambition: producing quality brandy, from the emblematic Low-Lande grape, the Baco. His work of the vine (only two hectares) preserves microbiological life and vinification is done naturally. All his armagnacs are burns.
