- Description
- Château Laballe's 1962 vintage, bottled in 2026, is a 64-year-old Bas Armagnac of serious age and intensity, marked by the rancio development that defines great old brandies—that combination of oxidative richness and concentrated fruit. Dried fruits, walnut, and nutty oak have merged into a unified flavor profile where age shows as depth rather than harshness. The palate is powerful and concentrated, with warming spice and lingering sweetness. A brandy for landmark birthdays or collectors seeking the extreme age spectrum.
