Baron De Sigognac 1976 Vintage Armagnac Overview

Baron De Sigognac 1976 Vintage Armagnac

A rare and characterful spirit, capturing a single harvest in Gascony and preserving it through decades of careful ageing. Produced entirely at the estate, it reflects a traditional approach where vineyard, distillation and maturation remain closely controlled to retain authenticity and terroir expression.

Now at full maturity, this vintage delivers a layered and nuanced profile, offering both depth and elegance.

Tasting Profile:

• Appearance: Rich amber with deep copper tones, indicative of extended ageing in oak.
• Nose: Refined and expressive, with aromas of dried apricot, fig and citrus peel. Subtle notes of spice, polished wood and toasted nuts provide added complexity.
• Palate: Silky and rounded, with a core of dried fruit and gentle sweetness balanced by oak-driven spice. Hints of toffee, baking spice and soft rancio character emerge with time.
• Finish: Elegant and persistent, with a gradual fade of spice, oak and mature fruit.
