Castarede 1980 Armagnac 40% 500ml

Bottled in 2019. Topaz. Fine and feminine on the nose; cedary oak then enticing scents of pecans, honey, plums / prunes, raisin slice and light pepper... sweeter notes of vanilla, sticky date and old muscat develop after five minutes in the glass. Silky and elegant with an attractive thread of dried fruits and baking spices carried by super fine tannins. Light rancio. Good length. Feminine and quite finessed. 40% Alc./Vol. Tasting note : Tea-soaked raisins and candied peel, with a spice that highlights the complexity of the palate. More dried fruit and jasmine blossom on the nose give a spring-like warmth.
