Bas Armagnac VSOP

A lovely prune bouquet with a wealth of concentrated aromas, the suggestion of freshly baked bread and a touch of toast and gingerbread. Aeration reveals superb aromas of baking bread, rancio and candied fruit.

Smooth and well-rounded on the palate that there is only the flavour of fine oaky vanilla, with no trace of alcohol.

Good length with a hint of macerated stone fruit on the finish.

Domaine Tariquet, located in Gascony in the South West of France, has been owned by the Grassa family since 1912. As wine-grower, all the wines and Bas-Armagnacs are produced exclusively from grapes grown on the family’s vineyards. From the vines to the bottling, the Grassa family master every step of the production process, preserving the grapes’ freshness and aromatic potential. The Grassa family have already been sustainably managing their vineyards for over 20 years. Concerned about protecting the environment, the estate is certified ISO 14001 and HVE (High Environmental Value). Situated in the heart of Gascony, between the Atlantic Ocean and the Pyrenees Mountains, Domaine Tariquet benefits from the mild influence of an oceanic climate. A strong temperature amplitude between summer days and nights produces ripe grapes with thick skins full of freshness and fruit. A mosaic of soils with clay-limestone and “boulbène”(silica, clay, sand) enhanced by ochre-colored sand known as “sables fauves”, deep and draining, perfect for white varietals.
