Gilles Bartholomo is a craftsman with hands of gold. He is the last of the master coopers in the region,
located in Frêche, in the Landes. He constructs his barrels entirely by hand from Gascon black oak,
according to ancestral know-how. These are the same barrels used to age our Armagnacs as well as
our wines La Croix Reserve and Victoire. The quality of these pieces is essential in producing an exceptional Armagnac.
