The Baco Blanc is a white French grape variety that forms the basis for armagnac. This variety was developed in 1898 by the French grower François Baco in the Landes in southwestern France and from whom the grape took its name. It is a cross between the Folle Blanche and the Noah. It is related to the Baco Noir. In 2008, a total of only more than 800 hectares were planted with this variety in the south-west of France, but this is slowly decreasing. In recent years, there has been a development in New Zealand that is reversing this trend. This land now has 100 hectares.
