Appearance: Deep amber hue with golden highlights, indicative of extended aging.
Nose: Aromas of vanilla custard and maple syrup transition to a palate of leather and tobacco leaf.
Palate: Rich and full-bodied, the palate reveals flavors of leather and tobacco leaf, complemented by a subtle sweetness reminiscent of banana pudding. The well-integrated alcohol provides warmth without overpowering the nuanced flavours.
Finish: The finish is long and complex, with lingering notes of lemon oil and a hint of copper, leaving a lasting impression of depth and sophistication.
Overall: Distilled in 1985 from a blend of Ugni Blanc, Colombard, and Folle Blanche grapes, this Armagnac showcases the exceptional quality achievable in the Bas-Armagnac region. Aged in 420-liter French oak casks, it offers a harmonious balance between rich, spicy fruit and robust, decadent oak.
