ARMAGNAC by Baron de Pichon Longueville 1986

Description

The elegance of a 1986 vintage Bas-Armagnac

The Baron de Pichon-Longueville 1986 Armagnac is aimed at connoisseurs seeking a unique spirit, imbued with a specific vintage and a rich history. Produced in south-west France, it is associated with the Château de Briat, an estate situated in Mauvezin-d’Armagnac and linked to the Baron de Pichon-Longueville family. The vintage indicates the year in which the grapes used to produce this eau-de-vie were harvested, making it a particularly appealing choice for a personalised gift.

On tasting, the notes identified for this vintage highlight raisins and caramel. The colour is described as brilliant, with a subtle hue reminiscent of tea leaves. On the palate, the overall impression is pleasant and rounded, with a refined character. This indulgent profile invites you to take your time discovering the spirit’s aromatic nuances, without rushing the tasting.

With an alcohol content of 44% ABV and a 70 cl bottle, this Armagnac is particularly well suited to being enjoyed at the end of a meal. Serve it in a suitable glass, in small quantities, and allow it to breathe for a few moments before savouring it. It pairs well with a square of dark chocolate, dried fruit or a dessert with caramelised notes, without these pairings overpowering its aromas.

Its 1986 vintage also makes it a fitting gift for a birthday, a birth year or a personal celebration. A bottle that combines the pleasure of tasting, the appeal of the vintage and an emotional dimension.
