Created in 2021, VineArt en Gascogne was imagined on the principle of open doors and gives pride of place to circus arts, theater, music, dance and artistic performance. In turn, the cellars and estates organize festive days that combine artistic performances, exhibition openings, workshops, wine tastings, walks in the vineyards, farmers’ markets. Food trucks, peasant snacks or even winegrowers’ braziers allow visitors to eat.

Like every year, the event is associated with a circus company. For this new edition, the Franco-Brazilian company Um Passo in Frente, which is at the crossroads of various circus disciplines (pole, acrobatics, dance, manipulation of objects, etc.) will perform on July 29 at the Domaine de Joÿ (Panjas ). Note that, throughout the summer, the Gascogne-Armagnac house offers an exhibition by photographer Laurent Ferrière, to discover the vineyards and winegrowers of the IGP Côtes-de-Gascogne.

IGP Côtes de Gascogne
Recognized as an IGP since 2009, the Côtes de Gascogne vineyard covers the department of Gers as well as a small part of the neighboring departments of Landes and Lot-et-Garonne. It thus belongs to the South-West wine region, made up of 16 protected designations of origin (PDO) and 12 protected geographical indications (PGI).
Its range of wines, mostly made from native grape varieties such as Colombard, Gros and Petit Manseng, or even Tannat and Black Manseng, includes red wines, rosé wines but above all white wines, dry or sweet, which constitute the bulk of its production.
