Baron de Lustrac Armagnac 1965 presents a deep amber colour with golden highlights, hinting at its long maturation and complex profile.
Nose
The nose reveals a harmonious blend of dried fruits, notably prunes and figs, intertwined with delicate notes of vanilla, toasted oak, and a subtle hint of violet, showcasing the intricate ageing process.
Palate
A rich and velvety texture, with flavours of caramelised nuts, honey, and a touch of warm spice. The balanced structure and nuanced layers lead to a long, warming finish, leaving an impression of depth and elegance.
Serving suggestions
Best enjoyed neat in a tulip-shaped glass to concentrate its complex aromas. This Armagnac pairs excellently with fine cigars or dark chocolate desserts, enhancing its nuanced flavour 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.

Each vintage embodies its own unique personality, reflecting the distinct terroir and craftsmanship that define the region's character.
