Comte de Lauvia Hors d’Age
An Hors d'Age Armagnac from Comte de Lauvia, made using Ugni Blanc, Baco Blanc and Folle Blanche grapes. As with their other expressions, Comte de Lauvia have 'double matured' this Armagnac in local black oak casks, initially in new wood for several months, before being moved to second or third fill casks for a further period of around 2 years. After this, they're moved to older casks, with this expression made up of vintages dating back to the early 1970s and spanning almost 30 years!
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Chocolate and Mississippi mud pie with marmalade developing, becoming increasing zesty. Fig rolls and vanilla custard emerge with hints of menthol and cigar box.
Palate
Earthy butterscotch and Toffifee crossing into nutty, slightly mushroomy rancio notes.
Finish
Sweet with mixed peels, orange oil and light hazelnut.
