Baco 22 A is an old historic Armagnac grape variety dating from 1898. It is the result of crossing Folle Blanche and Noah, a grape variety resistant to phylloxera. Baco eau de vie is known for its typical fruitiness (apricot and plum).
Maison Darbeau has been growing this grape for 3 generations, it seemed appropriate to highlight this eau de vie in an original and modern way.
