Nose
The nose is inviting and complex, featuring rich aromas of dried fruits such as prunes and figs, complemented by subtle hints of vanilla, toasted oak, and a delicate floral touch of violet.
Palate
Luxurious, velvety texture. Flavours of caramelised nuts and honey intertwine with warm spice undertones. The balanced structure leads to a long, warming finish, leaving an impression of depth and elegance.
Serving suggestions
Enjoy neat in a tulip-shaped glass to concentrate its complex aromas. This vintage pairs beautifully with fine cigars or rich dark chocolate desserts, enhancing its nuanced profile.
About
Baron de Lustrac, a revered éleveur-négociant specialising in single-vintage Armagnacs, has built its reputation on strong partnerships with 20 selected growers across the Bas-Armagnac and Ténarèze regions. The estate’s philosophy is grounded in five key values: terroir, character, authenticity, handcrafted quality, and discovery. These principles guide every step of production. After a long, slow ageing process at their native properties, the final blending and bottling take place at their cellars in the village of Nogaro. Each vintage embodies its own unique personality, reflecting the distinct terroir and craftsmanship that define the region's character.
