Description

From this highly regarded brandy producer, comes another extraordinary, vintage dated offering: a grape spirit that was laid down in 1971.  As will most of Castarede’s bottlings, the spirit displays all the greatness of Armagnac: a big fulsome style, loads of lush, rich oak and a complexity of fruit flavours.

And chance to taste the ancient past.

From Drinks & Co, “Smell: nose deep, rich fruit, candied, ground nuts, intense orange peel, almond.
Mouth: rich palate, powerful, slightly warm, full of character and very good length”.

Official notes read, ” This vintage, bottled in 2020, has aged in oak barrels for 49 years. Nose: nose deep, rich fruit, candied, groundnuts, intense orange peel, almond. Palate: rich palate, powerful, slightly warm, full of character and very good length”.
