L’Encantada Renaissance 2 Domaine Del Cassou 35 Year 1987

Review #1227; Brandy #66

This sample was provided to me by a producer, distributor, or some other industry source free-of-charge. No compensation, outside of the sample, was received and there were no strings attached.

This bottling is one of 3 bottles in the Renaissance de l’Encantada, a box of 3 Armagnacs from 3 different producers.  This one was distilled from Baco grape in the commune of Arthez d’Armagnac using a mobile still and was aged in red oak barrels for 37 years before being bottled at cask strength with no additives.

A great bottling to me, the flavors are really delicious and enjoyable, but for my wallet at least, this box of 3 is out of my price range. We will have to see how the other bottles stack up to this one.
