Origin: France

Distillery: Laudet family

For nearly two centuries now, the Laudet family produces the Chteau Laballes Armagnacs on the estate. From the vineyard management to the years of aging, everything is done to extract and preserve the most of the SablesFauves soils singular characteristics. The vines are cherished and soils worked to highlight the iron oxide (main characteristic of Sables Fauves) that brings a subtlety and fullness specific to the Chteau Laballes Armagnacs. Armagnac is distilled by simple stoking, in an ongoing still; the alcohol vapours go up from tray to tray and cross the cold wine in the opposite direction. Specific to the preparation of Armagnac, this technique allows a greater retention of aroma compared to a distillation by double stoking. The chteau uses the same still since 1923. It is a copper still that requires attention from the distillers because it is wood heated and supplied manually. As a result, temperature varies significantly during the distillation (as opposed to gas stills that have a constant temperature). These changes provide an extra character to the Armagnacs.

Laballe Resistance 100% Baco 22A Bas Armagnac | 700ML Tasting Notes

Nose: On the nose, you are immediately struck by the distinctiveness of this grape.

Palate: Aromas of apple, smoke and citrus giving way to a round, salty expression in the mouth that finishes with a hint of licorice. Its a delightfully elegant spirit with impressive balance of flavour, complexity and elegance as well as good length and the hearty weight youd expect from a quality Bas Armagnac.

Finish: Unique, and well worth the Rsistance.
