The 2011 harvest from Château de Bordeneuve, in Castelnau d'Auzan, one of the oldest estates in Armagnac. This Armagnac combines Ugni Blanc and Baco, grown on tawny sands, distilled in a single pass in the Armagnac still, then aged in oak casks. Bottled at natural strength, without reduction, at 48.8% vol., it will appeal to those who like to taste the eau-de-vie just as it comes from the cask. 70 cl bottle delivered in a wooden box: a fine idea for a birth, a birthday or a gift for anyone born in 2011.
