This 100% Ugni Blanc, single distilled Bas-Armagnac is aged six months in new oak followed by a seven year period in well-seasoned oak. Sold in some markets as 7 year old rather than VSOP.
Baron de Sigognac V.S.O.P. Reserve Bas Armagnac | 700ML Tasting Notes
Nose: Apple, pear and leather with a hint of varnish and lavender.
Palate: This is extremely rich and very balanced in flavour.
Finish: Long lingering stewed pear and spice. Delightfully not what you’d expect of an Armagnac.
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.
