Tasting Notes
The 1900 Castarède Bas-Armagnac presents a stunning profile shaped by its century-long maturation:
- Nose: Deeply layered with aromas of aged leather, dried apricots, and toasted almonds, accented by delicate wafts of polished mahogany and subtle floral undertones.
- Palate: Rich and velvety, with flavors of dried figs, honeyed walnuts, and dark chocolate interwoven with warm spices like cinnamon and clove. The long aging has lent a remarkable depth, and there’s a delightful touch of rancio—a unique, earthy note often found in very old spirits.
- Finish: Profoundly long and luxurious, with lingering notes of tobacco, candied orange peel, and a whisper of vintage oak, showcasing the exceptional balance that only a Bas-Armagnac of this caliber can achieve.
