Description

Armagnac is divided into three sub-regions, the Bas-Armagnac, the Ténerèze, and the Haut-Armagnac.
Bas-Armagnac is named for its lower altitude. The highest number of quality-oriented producers is located in the North-Western portion of the Bas-Armagnac, specifically in the département of Les Landes. This region, unofficially known as the Grand Bas-Armagnac, has sand-based soil, often with a high iron content (sables fauves) or with small pieces of clay (boulbènes) that tend to yield spirits that are very supple in their youth. The Bas-Armagnac is dominated by Bacco and Ugni Blanc plantings.

Baron de Lustrac works with a number of small producers and growers and oversees production and ageing of their spirit - this allows them full control of their Armagnac. Only the finest eaux de vie from the best terroirs are used in the production of Lustrac's vintage Armagnacs. Once distilled the colourless spirit is aged in 420 litre oak barrels. It is here, in barrel, that the Armagnac leaches vanillins and tannins from the toasted oak which lend the spirit colour and flavour. The depth of colour and complexity of flavour increase all the time the spirit is aged in cask, the colour can range from pale straw to rich amber. As Armagnac ages it becomes darker in colour and softer, smoother and more elegant on the palate whilst aromas and flavours of prunes, violets, fig, honey, butterscotch and rancio develop. Part of the alcohol evaporates naturally during the long years in cask - this is known as "la part des anges" (the angel's share). Presented in an old-fashioned Armagnac bottle and wooden box, these rare vintage Armagnacs are available in strictly limited quantities. Each label is inscribed with the year of distillation, the name of the Domain of production, the bottle number and, where relevant, the grape variety. In this year - August 1st - The 1936 Summer Olympics open in Berlin, Germany.

Deep amber colour with mahogany tints and a rich oaky nose with evidence of dried fruits and vanilla, A rich rounded body with some soft spice and elements of dryish tannins and roasted coffee and chocolate on the finish.

A spectacular Birthday present for anyone born in 1936.

This retails for around £550+, but the reserve is more than £200 below that.
