Chateau De Briat Armagnac 'Hors d'Age' 750ml

Each varietal is distilled separately to 52°, and all of the 10 barrels aged at the property during a given year. After 2 or 3 years, they are transferred to older casks and, apart from an airing once a year, left to rest in the spacious yet primitive chai. Topping up is not practiced; preferring to let the level fall, promote air contact, and therefore create a spirit that is less aggressive. Assemblage of various grapes takes place after a minimum of four years and, at times, not until their tenth birthday. - Appellation: Bas-Armagnac - Single distillation in traveling column still - 75% Bacco, 15% Folle Blanche, and 10% Colombard. - Average age of 12 years old - Supple, elegant texture that holds notes of licorice, chocolate, toffee and oak.
