Baron de Sigognac 20 Year Old Bas Armagnac | 700ML Tasting Notes
Nose: Sweet, spicy nose. Warm pastries, vanilla, berries.
Palate: Rich nut and toffee notes, but it keeps its sherry influence restrained and moreish, with plump dried fruit and subtle stone fruit notes.
Finish: Spicy and long finish, not unlike mulled wine.
Distillery Information
The Baron de Sigognac distillery is a traditional one. It is located on the north wing of the main cellar, an old imposing building in the very heart of the vineyard. At Sigognac, the distillery is primarily the place where the secrecy of the house know-how holds an uttermost importance. The distillation is this magic moment when the entirely natural wines give birth to the sublime Sigognac Armagnacs.
