Varieties : Ugni-blanc 60% Baco 40% Producer: Domaine Tariquet Description: The Grassa family settled in 1912 at Château du Tariquet where fine eaux-de-vie have been produced since 1683. The wines are exclusively produced from the grapes harvested from the family estate’s vineyards located in the Bas-Armagnac region. They are then distilled in a traditional wood-fired Armagnac alembic at the Château. After several years of aging in oak barrels, these eaux-de-vie become Bas-Armagnacs of great finesse and rare elegance. Characteristics : The youngest of the brandies in this typical Bas-Armagnac blend was aged in oak barrels, in our cellars, for at least 7 years. Serving suggestion :A beautiful shade of amber. A strong prune bouquet with a wealth of concentrated aromas, the suggestion of freshly baked bread and a touch of toast and gingerbread. Aeration reveals superb aromas of baking bread, rancio and candied fruit. So smooth and well-rounded on the palate that there is only the flavour of fine oaky vanilla, with no trace of alcohol. Good length with a hint of macerated stone fruit on the finish.
