Nose
The nose unfolds with rich aromas of dried apricots, figs, and a hint of prune, intertwined with subtle notes of vanilla, toasted oak, and a delicate touch of violet.
Palate
Luxuriously smooth and velvety. Flavours of caramelised nuts and honey meld with warm hints of cinnamon and clove. The balanced profile leads to a long, warming finish, imparting depth and elegance.

Enjoy neat in a tulip-shaped glass to enhance its aromatic complexity. This vintage pairs beautifully with fine cigars or indulgent desserts like dark chocolate torte, elevating its layered character.
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.
