2010 vintage from Château de Bordeneuve, in Castelnau d'Auzan, in the Gers. This Bas-Armagnac, aged in oak casks and born on tawny sands, is distilled in the Armagnac still in a single run, then bottled at natural strength, without reduction: 47.9% vol. It aims to be both soft on the palate and powerful in aromas. Presented in a wooden case, in a 70 cl bottle, it makes a natural gift: the birthday of someone born in 2010, a birth keepsake or a fine occasion to share among enthusiasts.
