Bas-Armagnac

A fresh, fruit-led nose opens this golden Armagnac, followed by a mellow palate and measured oak. Cask ageing rounds the spirit without obscuring its brighter character, keeping the texture supple and the finish clean. The historic house draws on wines from Bas-Armagnac and matures its eaux-de-vie in long-established cellars, giving this VS blend a classic, approachable shape. Serve neat, over ice or in a brandy-led cocktail.

Ripe plum, pastry and vanilla lead the nose, joined by citrus and a mild wildflower note. The palate is full and rounded, with dried fruit and honey layered over espresso, clove and black pepper. Despite its richness, the spirit keeps a delicate line and measured sweetness rather than becoming heavy. The finish is long, softly spiced and warming. Serve neat after dinner, or use a modest pour to bring depth to a classic brandy cocktail.
