Courrensan, in the heart of Ténarèze

Courrensan is a village in Ténarèze, one of the three terroirs of Armagnac, located between Gondrin and Montréal-du-Gers. This wine-growing area produces elegant and fragrant Armagnacs, renowned for their finesse. The surrounding landscape blends vineyards, cereal fields, and wooded hillsides, offering a typically Gascon setting. The village preserves a discreet but authentic rural heritage, with its church and stone houses.

May 1st in Ténarèze gersoise

May 1st is a favorite date for car boot sales in the Gers region. The Labor Day holiday offers families a full day to enjoy bargain hunting and the outdoors. Courrensan takes advantage of this public holiday to attract visitors and bargain hunters to its village, offering a rural and authentic alternative to large urban flea markets. From 9 am to 6 pm, the day is long enough for an in-depth exploration of the stalls.

A day of flea marketing in the vineyards

The Courrensan car boot sale is an opportunity to combine the passion for bargain hunting with the discovery of the Ténarèze vineyards. Visitors can, after browsing the stalls, explore the surrounding wine estates, taste an Armagnac or a Floc de Gascogne, and enjoy the hilly landscapes that make this corner of the Gers so beautiful. A full day of Gascon pleasures, between good deals and local produce.
