Tariquet Montreur d'Ours

Special Edition of the French Bas-Armagnac Montreur d´Ours from the Tariquet distillery is a blend of 10 to 20-year-old armagnacs. It is made from 3 grape varieties, Plant de Graisse, Ugni Blanc, and Baco. Aged in French oak barrels. No added coloring or caramel. The bottle comes in a hand-carved wooden gift box made by local craftsmen from the Gascony region.

Montreur d´Ours pays tribute to the ancestors of the Grassa-Artaud family, originally from Ercé, a small village in the Ariège mountains at the foot of the Pyrenees, where the tradition of taming bears has been passed down through generations. In 1912, the family purchased the Tariquet vineyard. The Grassa family began cultivating the Plant de Graisse grape variety in 2001. It is an old forgotten variety from the Armagnac region.
