The 1998 displays a surprisingly light colour, pale yellow with golden highlights. The nose, full of finesse, releases aromas of fresh fig, Ente plum and vanilla. The palate follows in the same gentle vein, with notes of prune and Corinth raisin, before a beautiful, lingering finish. Distilled from pure Ugni Blanc grown on the sandy soils, it was put through the armagnacais still in a single pass. The estate bottled it at 47.8% vol., without reduction, and presents it in a wooden case.
