HOW TO SERVE

Serve neat or over ice — most of all, allow this spirit to breathe for 15 to 30 minutes before sipping.

X-FACTOR

The judges loved the bold flavors and the concentration of fruit — a class Armagnac.

TASTING NOTE

Bright, medium copper/bronze color. The aromatics are very intense, offering scents of apricot, pear, and marzipan with supporting notes of baked apple, baking spices, nutmeg, and leather. The palate confirms the nose delivering a dried fruits-driven core with supporting flavors of brown sugar, quince, and roasted nuts. The finish is long and lingering. Full-bodied and favorably balanced with a voluptuous texture.
