Description
Tasting Notes for Castarede 1965 Bas Armagnac (40%)
Appearance: Deep amber with mahogany reflections, showing its long aging in oak barrels.
Nose: An expressive and layered bouquet of dried fruits, including figs and prunes, interwoven with notes of toasted almonds, caramelised orange peel, and rich vanilla. Hints of tobacco, leather, and sweet spices add complexity.
Palate: Silky and well-structured, with a refined balance between warmth and elegance. Flavours of dark chocolate, dried apricots, and nutmeg lead into deeper notes of oak, roasted coffee, and rancio, characteristic of well-aged Armagnac.
Finish: Exceptionally long, with lingering notes of spiced fruitcake, toasted oak, and a gentle, warming spice that gradually fades into a velvety softness.
Overall: A beautifully mature and complex Bas Armagnac that showcases the finesse of Castarede's craftsmanship. Perfect for slow sipping, best enjoyed neat in a tulip glass to fully appreciate its depth and evolution in the glass.
