Castarede 1946 A 40% 500ml
Maison Castarède is a family-run Armagnac house with centuries of distilling history. It is based just south of the town Mauléon d’Armagnac within the Bas Armagnac subregion. The Castarède estate has a 17th century château that has been the site of distillation and aging since it was acquired by the family in the 20th century. Distilling is done in an alembic continuous still that is more than 50 years old, and the freshly distilled eau-de-vie is transferred to new French oak barrels for aging. After several years the spirit is moved to older barrels for the rest, and majority, of its aging.
From the exceptionally old 1946 single vintage, aromas of vanilla and dried fruits with a lifted perfume abound with a satiny mouthfeel.
