{"title":"Plaimont","description":"In earlier times, the interior of Gascony was called \u0026quot;Pays de Cocagne,\u0026quot; which translates roughly to \u0026quot;Land of Cockaigne\u0026quot; or \u0026quot;Land of Plenty,\u0026quot; and it was primarily Armagnac that was produced there. It wasn\u0026#39;t until the late 1970s that André Dubosc brought the French Colombard grape variety from the Gers department to Gascony, reviving the somewhat lost winemaking tradition of the region. Today, the lush green vineyards of Gascony yield fresh and flavorful wines, whose aromas often recall exotic fruits and citrus. The grapes for d\u0026#39;Artagnan wines are cultivated in the Saint-Mont appellation in the Gers department. Named after the fourth musketeer, d\u0026#39;Artagnan, they are as bold and fresh as the hero. Grapes are cultivated on almost 220 hectares within the Saint-Mont appellation.","products":[{"product_id":"plaimont-terres-dartagnan-blanc","title":"Plaimont Terres d\u0026#39;Artagnan Blanc","description":"\u003cp\u003eA light, aromatic white wine from the southwest of France – fresh, fruity and easy to drink.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003ePlaimont\u003c\/strong\u003e is one of the most important winegrowers\u0026#39; cooperatives in the Gers region, the home of the legendary musketeer Artagnan.
