IGP Côtes de Gascogne
Domaine des Frères Laffitte
« Welcome to our home, welcome to Gascony! »
Our family has been cultivating this land from generation to generation - as far back as the written record goes. Under our impetus, the Domaine will experience a new development. Passionate about vines and wine, we have gradually built an ideal vineyard, capable of expressing all the richness and complexity of our terroir. Our wines and Armagnacs are the reflection of our souls: straight, authentic and generous.

« The best grapes make the best wine! »
For each parcel, an adapted technical itinerary. The whites are made from colombard, gros and petit manseng as well as Sauvignon Blanc, Gris and Chardonnay. For the Rosé and Red wines, we cultivate Cabernet Franc and Tannat. By conviction, we cultivate our vines in a traditional way in the respect of our environment which is dear to us. Every year we plant green manure to limit erosion in winter and increase the fertility of the soil. All of our work has a single objective - to produce the best grapes.
"All of our work pursues one goal - to produce the best grapes."
- Christophe et Sébastien Laffitte
« The signature of our wines »
Our vines are planted on the highest hills of AYZIEU, on the borders of Gascony, also known as
also called "the little Tuscany" for its hilly and varied landscapes. Our terroir, very typical of Bas Armagnac, is essentially composed of "tawny sands" on the surface and "terrebouc" in the subsoil. These two very particular elements give our wines minerality, freshness and power. The climate benefits from the influence of the Atlantic Ocean and the Pyrenees mountain range. Our rainy and mild winters quickly give way to hot and dry summers followed by a beautiful late season. This particular climate gives our vineyard an exceptional potential of maturation and assures us the production of red wines marked by very ripe fruits.
