Castarede Armagnac Carafe XO 20 years 500ml - 1 Bottle

Product Description

Product Description

Castarède Armagnac Carafe XO 20 Years is a premium Bas-Armagnac matured for a minimum of 20 years in French oak, far exceeding the legal ageing requirement for XO Armagnac. Presented in an elegant QBIC carafe, this expression reflects Castarède's long tradition of producing refined, beautifully aged Armagnacs with remarkable balance and complexity.

The extended maturation develops generous aromas of ripe fruit, spice and toasted oak, while the palate reveals candied plum, citrus peel, nutmeg and delicate rancio. Rich yet refined, it finishes with exceptional smoothness and impressive length, making it an outstanding after-dinner spirit or premium gift.
