Wine & Armagnac Tasting at Château de Gensac

This intorductory visit at Château de Gensac begins with an overview of the history of château and estate itself — a 13th century landmark nestled in the beautiful rolling hills of Gascony— and to the story of wine and Armagnac making in this exceptional corner of the world, from the Romans who first brought vines to the region, to the Arab merchants who introduced the alembic still to Europe, to the Celts who bequeathed the tradition of oak ageing. You will discover the estate's philosophy of organic viticulture and its commitment to crafting terroir-driven, age-worthy wines that express the singular character of the Gers.

The experience culminates in a guided tasting of three wines from the Château de Gensac range, showcasing the estate's flagship grape varieties — including the powerful Tannat and the savoury Petit Manseng — alongside one Armagnac, the emblematic spirit of the region. Your expert host will guide you through each glass with the same passion and precision that defines every bottle produced at the estate.

This introduction is ideal for curious visitors wishing to discover the basic essence of traditional Gascony in a convivial and accessible format.
