Château de Laubade – Millésime 1975, Brut de fût – Bas-Armagnac

The nose is elegant, intense, harmonious and offers powers (but full of delicacy). It reveals notes of dry orange zests, dry mandarine, small notes of cigare, rancio associated with touches of cedar wood, dry quince as well as fine hints of rose wood, pepper and spices/roasted almond. The palate is fruity, well-balanced and offers a good definition, a fine juicy/mineral frame, a beautiful precision,a beautiful elegance as well as straightness. On the palate this Armagnac expresses notes of orangette, kumquat, small notes of brugnon associated with touches of quince, cedar as well as discreet hints of flowers, a very discreet hint of nougatine (in the background). Good length. The finish is very finely tight. A beautiful power full of delicacy and elegance! A beautiful Armagnac!
