- Description
- Distilled in 1972 and bottled in 2022 at 50 years old, this Armagnac from Château de Gaube was selected by independent bottler Baron de Lustrac and represents the refined character of French spirit-making. The nose opens with floral notes and candied fruits that evolve across the palate into nutty, citrusy and fruity dimensions anchored by plums and dark chocolate. The extended maturation creates a sophisticated balance between fruit-forward freshness and the deeper complexity of age.
