Château de Laubade – Plant de Graisse 2006 – Brut de fût, Bas-Armagnac

The nose is gourmand, powerful and offers an incisive side, intensity, a small richness as well as a fine fat side. It reveals notes of dry orange, pepper (cuben, grey), dry lemon, small notes of dry peach associated with very fine hints of brugnon, small white fruits as well as a subtle hint of rose, cedar and rancio. The palate is fruity, fat, gourmand and offers a small richness, a fine acidulous frame, roundness, a small fleshiness as well as a good definition. On the palate this Armagnac expresses notes of lychee, rose, small notes of crushed brugnon associated with small touches of dry lemon, dry lemon zests, dry mandarine zests as well as subtle hints of quenette, pepper, cedar as well as an imperceptible hint of violet (in the background). Good length.
