Fruity aroma (yellow peach, ripe plum). The taste on the palate is long, smooth, and has distinct woody undertones. There is a subtle hint of hazelnut and a discreet rancio flavor. This Armagnac is expressive, flavorful, and is considered collectible due to the slow and traditional distillation process. It has been aged for many years in black oak casks, resulting in a truly unique and exceptional Armagnac. The soil in Ténarèze, which is the same as in Cognac's top growing areas, contributes to its excellent quality. In my opinion, Armagnac from Ténarèze ages longer and better than others.
