Eaux de Vie Folle Blanche 52%

Wine information: Domaine Boingneres is owned by the Lafitte family and, today, it is run by Marguerite Lafitte and her daughter Martine. It is situated in the village of Le Frêche (Landes) and has 22 hectares of vineyards. The former patriarch of the family, Leon Lafitte, decided to grub up all the old Bacco vine vines and to replant them with what he considered to be the "Cepages Nobles" - Folle Blanche, Colombard and Ugni Blanc. The Lafitte's use a good deal of new oak. They purchase between 10 and 15 new barrels per year most of which is from a neighboring commune; 50% rests in this oak for twelve months, then the other 50% spends the second year in this same oak. This ensures good color, spice and vanilla extraction which is always present in their armagnacs. They eschew boisé and caramel additives. This Eaux de Vie is form 100% Folle Blanche.
