Baron De Lustrac Bas Armagnac 1971 Vintage 70cl

Baron De Lustrac Bas Armagnac 1971 Vintage

This vintage celebrates one of the great traditions of Armagnac, where patience and expert maturation transform exceptional eaux-de-vie into timeless spirits. Distilled from the 1971 harvest and matured for decades, this vintage offers the depth, refinement and individuality that collectors seek from an aged Bas-Armagnac.

Rather than relying on a single estate, Baron de Lustrac carefully selects fine brandies from leading growers throughout the region before ageing them in its historic Nogaro cellars, producing vintage Armagnacs renowned for their consistency and character.

Tasting Profile:

• Appearance: Rich golden amber with copper hues.
• Nose: Elegant notes of dried figs, honey, vanilla, polished oak and warming baking spices.
• Palate: Smooth and full-bodied, with flavours of dried fruit, candied citrus, soft honey, oak and delicate rancio developing beautifully across the palate.
• Finish: Exceptionally long and refined, leaving lingering spice, mature oak and gentle sweetness.
