This French brandy, which has its roots in the 15th century in Gascony, benefits from the region's special soil and climate. The grapes ripen slowly, resulting in a more delicate aroma and finesse. Armagnac is matured in oak barrels and glass containers, and after several years of aging, it is blended into different types such as VS, VSOP, XO and Hors d'Age. In particularly good years, Armagnac Vintage is also produced.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eCastarède, established in 1832, is the oldest trading house in Armagnac. The Castarède family has run the company for six generations, and today Florence Castarède is at the helm. The company has 16 hectares of vineyards in Bas Armagnac, where they grow the grape varieties Folle Blanche, Colombard, Ugni Blanc and soon also Baco. Castarède also buys grapes and wines, which are aged in their own cellars. They are known for their vintage Armagnacs, the oldest vintage dating back to 1893. Castarède Armagnac is famous for its rounded style, as the spirits are matured for a very long time in wooden barrels. For example, XO or Hors d'Age are matured for 20 years, although the legal requirement is only 10 years. Each bottle of Armagnac Vintage has a back label confirming the vintage and bottling date. Many of Castarède's products have achieved high scores in international tastings.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bas Armagnac Castarede","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49589816263002,"sku":"MS-1341-BAS-BAS A","price":81.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0816\/5435\/0170\/files\/bas-armagnac-castarede-1992-vintage-479521.jpg?v=1779433163","url":"https:\/\/dh-wines.com\/products\/bas-armagnac-castarede-1992-vintage-50-cl","provider":"DH Wines","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
