Armagnac with a beautiful mahogany color, bright and clear. A nose marked by freshness with a pretty undergrowth and spicy nuances, even some iodized marine notes. The palate is more virile with a beautiful woodiness as well as animal and peppery hints, a wild and warm finish gives this eau-de-vie all its amplitude. Non contractual photo

Baco is a hybrid grape variety, discovered by the teacher François Baco, a nurseryman in the Landes and passionate about viticulture. The genetic origin is a crossing of the Folle Blanche and Noah grape varieties carried out in 1898 after the phylloxera crisis. It is also known under the names Baco 22A, Maurice-baco and Piquepoul de pays.

Here is a Bas Armagnac with a light and shiny gold reflection. The rather complex nose is marked by notes of citrus tea which subsequently give way to woody vanilla. The palate is pleasant, balanced with a not very aggressive attack for its age, we find orange peel and a zest of musk on the finish. Non contractual photo

Armagnac, an amber-colored brandy. A slight herbaceous side to the nose with some notes of hay and a nice cocoa afterwards. The palate appears well balanced, we find a well-blended woodiness with an animal touch which asserts the character and caramel candy to soften the finish. Non contractual photo

Old Armagnac, amber, deep ruby reflections, very fine. A complex nose with first crushed strawberry accompanied by a few cloves then we discover delicately aniseed nougat.

Rating: 94/100 Gilbert & Gaillard Non contractual photo

Bas Armagnac, mahogany hue, reflections of both orange and green, on the nose you can find wood, pine and rancio always signs of high quality, on the palate the eau-de-vie is frank, notes of roasted coffee and its rancio give this vintage a lot of length, and make it interesting in tasting.
