Description

Armagnac Bas Veuve LaFontan & ses Enfants 40 ans Doyen d'Age

Armagnac Bas Veuve LaFontan & ses Enfants 40 ans Doyen d'Age is part of the “L’assemblage Armagnacs'' collection whereby the armagnacs are blended in the dark of the cellar with the help of the owner and the eaux-de-vie. It takes immense know-how, rigorous mastery and divine proportions to enhance the unique characteristics of Armagnacs and this collection does so with a range of differently aged products available. Having aged for 40 years, 40 ans Doyen d’Age Armagnac has reaped the benefits of years in the barrel and reveals spicy aromas as well as nuances of cinnamon, cloves and liquorice.

Veuve Lafontan & ses Enfants is a craft company that uses ancestral know-how to raise venerable eaux-de-vie as the product of years of hard-work and dedication. In the cellars of Veuve Lafontan, time stands still as patience is an ally meaning the curation of the vintage collection and well-aged blends in particular spend decades in oak barrels manifesting into Armagnac delights as the years pass by.
