Silver Medal - 2006 San Francisco World Spirit Competition! This vintage Armagnac is a terrific representative of France's oldest spirit. --Color: A deep orange hue. --Nose: Ripe black plum and fig. --Palate: Sweet with notes of mandarin and lightly roasted vanilla. Distilled for 300 years in the oldest distillery in Gascony, Château du Busca-Maniban armagnacs continue to be produced at the property according to traditional methods. The brandy is aged in oak barrels in the castle cellars. "The clay and limestone soil in Ténarèze is exactly the same as in Cognac's top growing regions of Grande Champagne where Ugni Blanc (grapes) reign. Armagnac from Ténarèze ages longer, and, in my opinion, better." -Alain Royer 4 STARS - F. Paul Pacult, Spirit Journal Most pleasing of all, gentlemanly brandy.”BEST BUY! 96-100 CLASSIC! - Wine Enthusiast The wonderfully zesty aroma includes notes of margarine, lanolin, dark caramel, buttery oak and holiday fruitcake. The palate entry is rich, creamy and honeyed; at midpalate the woody/creamy flavor suggests rancio beginnings. Finishes semisweet, cocoa- and maple sugar-like, and intensely oaky.
