All Château de Millet Armagnacs are produced exclusively from their own vines of Baco and Ugni Blanc grapes, harvested, vinified and distilled on site. The vines enjoy a north westerly position on the green hills where the soil alternates between clay limestone and the sandy soils known as ‘sables fauves’. This specific soil from the Bas-Armagnac area is renowned for its delicate and fruity brandies. The full vineyard is 220 acres, with 25 acres devoted to Armagnac and just under 200 acres of vines for the production of Côtes de Gascogne wines.
This “Hors d’age” is a blend of their best Bas Armagnac aged in oak barrels from 15 to 25 years. Beautiful amber color. Complex nose with notes of dried fruits and prune. Round body with notes of roasted hazelnuts. Gloriously intense finish to savour.
