This wine is from France, Armagnac region. Larressingle X.O. Grande Reserve Armagnac is produced from a cross-vintage blend of distillates of at least 15 to 20 years of age or more, as opposed to the legal minimum of five. Armagnacs are selected exclusively from wines produced in the Tenaeze and Bas-Armagnac districts, with those from Tenareze predominant. Smaller proportions of very old brandies from the Bas-Armagnac lend mellowness and richness to the finished spirit.
The result is a complex, virile and long-lived Armagnac that is nevertheless very elegant and refined on the palate, with a subtle, smoky bouquet hinting of prunes and hazelnuts and a smooth, lasting finish. Forty-three percent alcohol by volume (86 proof).. A rich and concentrated nose is full of baking spices, baked fruit and soft vanilla cookies. The elegant flavors combine spiced coffee, toasted walnuts, fresh brazil nut and chewy dates. A floral and vanilla spiked oak flavor is subtle on the finish.. 43% abv. This spirit is a marriage of very old reserve brandies from the Tenareze district which shows refined, vinous, mellow, smoky flavors and aromas offset by notes of plum and prune ending in a warm, lasting finish.
