Appearance
Intense amber with subtle greenish tints, showing remarkable clarity and a depth achieved through over a century of careful aging.
Nose
Rich and complex, the nose presents layered aromas of coffee, prunes, and soft vanilla with a balanced, gentle presence. This depth is accompanied by faint notes of rancio—a signature oxidative note from prolonged aging—adding to its unique character.
Palate
On the palate, this Armagnac offers a rich texture with flavours of prunes, dark fruit, and a touch of fine leather. The finish is smooth, long, and elegantly integrated, revealing the finesse of this vintage spirit.
