Tasting note

This single vintage armagnac from 1985 is labelled Cépages Nobles, or noble grapes, a reference to the Folle Blanche and Colombard it is distilled from. It comes from Domaine Boingnères, a small estate the same family has worked since 1807, now across six generations.

Colour. Deep and fairly intense.

Nose. Very fine and broad: peach, grape, apricot and melon, with darker chocolate beneath, a little wood, plum and marzipan.

Palate. Dry and fruity yet sweet, light and dark at the same time.

Most of the estate's roughly 50 acres of vines are planted to Folle Blanche, a demanding grape. Its continuous alembics run without stopping through a 20 day distilling season, often at strengths as low as 52%, so the spirit needs no reduction before cask or bottle. It is matured in French oak in a small barn on the property, some casks for many decades as here, with no caramel and no chill filtration.
