The Domaine Artigaux 1985 Armagnac is produced in the historic region of Gers by a family estate that has been preserving traditional craftsmanship since 1976. The vineyard, situated on clay-limestone soils, employs Ugni Blanc and Colombard grapes to create an Armagnac with a unique aromatic signature. This vintage represents an exceptional year, with ripe grapes resulting in balanced spirits. The Armagnac is aged for over 38 years in Gascon oak barrels, providing an amber color and an aromatic profile of candied fruits, light tobacco, vanilla, and nuts. This cask-strength spirit undergoes no reduction or excessive filtration, preserving its original aromas. Ideal for enjoying neat at room temperature, it pairs effectively with a cheese platter, foie gras, or a dark chocolate dessert. Available at L'Encantada, a producer in Vic-Fezensac, this Armagnac is shipped throughout France and Europe.
