About
Made in the foothills of the Pyrenees, Castarede Bas Armagnac is a blend of three grape varieties, Ugni Blanc (which is used for Cognac), Colombard and Folle Blanche. Armagnac itself is divided into three districts, Bas Armagnac, Armagnac and Haut Armagnac. It is the oldest distilled brandy-spirit in France with reference to it made in the 14th century by a Cardinal who extolled its healing and other properties including curing gout and hepatitis, healing wounds (by applying it to the skin), preserving youth, enlivening the spirit and loosening the tongue!Our Views
A very reasonably-priced treat, Castarede Vintage Bas-Armagnac 1979 would make a great gift. Just make sure you get to share a nip after-dinner.
