Chateau De Laubade L'Unique Armagnac

The Traveling Barrels. Eau De Vie De Vin finished in ex Bourbon Barrels (Bardstown Bourbon Company) Elegant and gourmet nose, balancing floral and dried fruits aromas with a hint of light spices. The palate is delightfully round with well integrated oak tannins and candied fruit notes. Rancio aromas come next carrying a great concentration and a remarkable length.” Francois Laura, Cellar Master - Master Blender. Distilled 11/22/2011 Bottled: 2/15/2021  Only 698 Bottles.   48.8% ABV

This eight-year-old Armagnac was finished in ex-bourbon barrels for eight months. The end result is a tawny liquid perfumed with vanilla and baking spice. The first sips are brisk and energetic, with hints of oak, dried apricot and plum skin, blossoming into a long, gentle fade marked by mocha, toffee and a hints of sarsaparilla. 94 Points, Kara Newman, Wine Enthusiast
