CASTARÈDE ARMAGNAC VINTAGE 1965

Ageing 55 years in cask, bottled in 2020
Cask Oak

This Castarède 1965 spent fifty-five years in oak casks before being bottled in 2020. Since then, it has been stored upright, away from light, and will develop no further. The vintage is now sixty-one years old. The house, founded in 1832 and still family-owned, has published a short tasting note, reproduced below.
