This is the entry-level expression from Armagnac experts Janneau. The VS is made with Baco and Ugni Blanc grapes grown in the Bas-Armagnac and Armagnac-Ténarèze, which go through single and double distillations before being set aside to age for at least three years. Great served neat, or if you want to try your hand at Armagnac cocktails, we reckon this would be a good choice.
Plum, apple, liquorice, softly oaky at point, with touches of vanilla sticking around.
...other than the very old bottle of De Pontiac VS that I found in my mum's drinks cabinet and that piqued my interest. Great intro to the style, warming, rounded and relatively sweet. I'm sure there are more sophisticated choices out there but this one works for me.
