Producer's Notes

Distilled from wines made from the noble Armagnac grape varieties Ugni Blanc, Colombard and, particularly, Folle Blanche.

Much of the oak at Boingnères actually comes from the Gascon forests. Martine contracts trees every year and air dries the staves next to one of the chai. The staves are then fabricated into 420-liter barrels.

The barrels then go into one of the two Boingnères chai. Both are relatively dry. Consequently, the alcohol level descends very slowly, so that even after 20 years, some barrels have only lost 3 degrees of alcohol!

As traditionally Armagnac is released without being reduced in alcohol—and Martine Lafitte is a strict traditionalist—the armagnacs at Boingnères are released at cask strength to ensure their absolute purity.
