Tasting Notes
This aged Bas Armagnac from Chateau de Laubade opens with a richly layered bouquet of dried fruits, toasted oak, and warm spice, reflecting 15 years of patient maturation in Gascon oak. On the palate, it delivers a sumptuous interplay of prune, vanilla, and candied orange peel, underpinned by earthy rancio and a whisper of dark chocolate. The finish is long, warming, and elegantly complex, leaving a trail of dried fig, toasted almond, and subtle floral notes.
