Château Du Tariquet '8 Ans Brut De Fût Cask Strength' Armagnac no-wrapin

Château Du Tariquet '8 Ans Brut De Fût Cask Strength' Armagnac no-wrapinAn eight year old Armagnac from Domaine Tariquets Pure Folle Blanche range, that is made exclusively with Folle Blanche grapes and matured in French oak casks. Eight years of aging lends this armagnac depth and maturity, but it remains quite lively with lots of ripe pear and plum fruit complimenting a rich composition of vanilla, caramel and orange zest, and finishing with a woodsy profile and a hint of chile spice.

This is the most serious white wine Cesc makes

a sense of wilderness instead of elegance

rendered into a delicate sparkling version

Pierre-Henri Rougeot is something of our Pinot Noir hero

with zero sulfites or any other additive

Amazing in an Americano or a deep and subtle Negroni

feral cousin

this is one of the most beautiful new-to-us bottles we've seen out of in Central Europe in the last few years

in her coastal milieu of the Languedoc coast

or with sweet vermouth and an orange peel

This is red wine for the fireplace

classical and modern history
