Larressingle VSOP Armagnac 750ml

Producer Description 

This Armagnac is supple and full-fruited, with a rich, smoky bouquet reminiscent of prunes and a lingering, mellow finish.

The highest-quality Armagnac is usually enjoyed after dinner as a contemplative drink. It should be served at cool room temperature and allowed to warm in the glass, which slowly releases waves of aroma. Pour about 1 inch of Armagnac into a thin tulip-shaped glass or a snifter. The glass may be held in the palm of the hand to warm the liquid. Pause to smell the aromas, then take small sips to appreciate the Armagnac’s smooth texture, its expressive layers of flavor and its lengthy finish.

• Blended from 60% Bas-Armagnac, 40% Ténarèze
• Blend of 5 to 7 year old Armagnacs
• Aged in 400-liter Monlezun oak barrels
