Smooth and elegant, Baron de Sigognac’s VS Armagnac is a standout entry-level brandy from the Bas Armagnac sub-region in Southwest France. Crafted from traditional Ugni Blanc grapes and aged in oak barrels from the Tronçay forest for over three years, it offers a richness and depth often surpassing similarly priced Cognacs. Aromas of quince, fresh plums, and vanilla lead to a supple, rounded palate with a long, fruity yet refreshing finish. Produced exclusively by the Guasch family, whose estate has flourished since the 12th century, Baron de Sigognac is a testament to their dedication to Armagnac craftsmanship. Every vintage is independently aged before being expertly blended, showcasing the family’s mastery of viticulture, vinification, and distillation.

Sigognac

Style: Distillery

Country: France

Region: Bas-Armagnac, Gascony

Armagnac remains one of France’s great hidden treasures. Older than Cognac, slightly wilder around the edges and generally far less interested in marketing itself. Baron de Sigognac sits comfortably within that tradition.

Produced in Bas-Armagnac, the house focuses on long-aged spirits made from traditional regional grape varieties and matured slowly in oak. The region’s sandy soils and centuries of distillation history help create eaux-de-vie with remarkable depth and character.

The younger bottlings show dried fruit, spice, vanilla and fresh oak, while the older vintage releases gradually move into walnut, tobacco, leather and dark caramel territory. Good mature Armagnac often feels wonderfully layered without becoming overly polished.

One of the joys of Armagnac is that it still feels connected to farming and place. Vintage releases remain common, meaning you can drink spirits distilled decades ago without needing to remortgage the house.

For people who enjoy Cognac but want something earthier, richer and slightly less predictable, Sigognac usually makes a very convincing argument.
