| TASTING NOTE: This amber-bronze coloured Armagnac is divine...The XO aged in black oak casks crafted from trees that grow in Bas-Armagnac is complex and memorable with a good mouth feel. This blend of older vintages in the 10 to 12 year old range has a bouquet of prune, old wood, ancient cellars, vanilla and mushroom. The taste is deep, mellow and satisfying with notes of sponge toffee, smoke and dried fruits. Layered and lingering, it's the kind of drink that just lifts your spirits up. One sip will have you exclaiming 'holy sh*t' this is good.' Score - 95+ (Margaret Swaine, winealign.com, April 2013) |
