Pellehaut Ténarèze Armagnac 5 Year Old

Pellehaut Ténarèze Armagnac 5 Year Old (Sélection) is a refined expression from one of Gascony’s most respected family estates. Aged for a minimum of five years in French oak barrels, this Armagnac combines youthful vibrancy with the subtle depth that defines the Ténarèze appellation. It offers a harmonious balance of fruit, floral notes, and soft oak spice, showcasing the traditional craftsmanship and distinctive terroir of southwestern France. With aromas of honey and dried fruit leading into a smooth, elegant palate of raisins, spice, and gentle wood, it is both approachable and complex — a perfect introduction to the house style of Château de Pellehaut.

Château de Pellehaut, located in the heart of the Ténarèze region in Montréal-du-Gers, has been producing wine and Armagnac for over four centuries. The estate is family-owned and operated by the Béraut family, whose generations of expertise have preserved traditional Gascon distillation methods while embracing modern quality standards.

Distilled on-site using a wood-fired Armagnac alambic still, Pellehaut’s Armagnacs are crafted primarily from Folle Blanche, a grape known for its finesse and aromatic purity. After distillation, the spirit is matured in French oak barrels that impart structure, roundness, and subtle vanilla notes. The result is an Armagnac that reflects the essence of its terroir — elegant, balanced, and unmistakably authentic.
