Welcome to the 5 Musketeers! โš”๏ธ

During our visit in January to L'Encantada, we were welcomed by Vincent, the cellar master, to share with us and make us experience the long-awaited moment of distillation!

The Encantada, the Armagnac Spirit ๐Ÿ”ฅ

Created in 2011 in Vic-Fezensac by a small group of passionate friends, we present to youโ€ฆ

Vincent, the enchanter

L'Encantada (adjective): In Gascon, means the enchantress or the enchanter. Which charms, delights the heart, the mind; bewitching

He opens his grimoire and we tells his story ! Vincent, creator of this house, really brings his passion to life and it shines through just by looking at these photos! The enchanter of Armagnac is there before our eyes.

Vincent takes the time to explain simply the process of distillation, how does a alembic, why we must touch the still, but also to speak with great humility and sincerity about former producers who created these numerous Armagnacs and which rest today in his cellar.

Respectful of authenticity of each Armagnac, he takes great care of them and ages them quietly in the cellar.

Quietlyโ€ฆor almost! Because for improve, Armagnac requires working, listening and refining. This requires barrel changes, changes of place in the cellar, it requires long time, to meet an exceptional clientele.

Armagnac Encantada distillation

A STILL FROM 1920!

New for 2024, a brand new beautiful still from 104 !

This copper still was purchased from a former distiller and reassembled this year. Still a little capricious, Vincent knew how to approach him, listen to him and anticipate his moods.

Both well established, they work in symbiosis to distill the estate's new harvest of 140 hectoliters! ๐Ÿ‘

and his friends!
