Description

Once beyond the varnishy/resiny/sappy opening sniffs, this yields delightful aromas of roasted nuts, dates, vanilla, pepper and sweet oak. A surprisingly soft, medium-bodied Armagnac framed by fine astringency, unfolding with flavours of oak shavings, prunes, raisins and orange zest and near-zero burn. The finish is oaky, moderately tannic with threads of vanilla and dates through the aftertaste.
