Tried this alongside a pappy flight (1 Old Armagnac was required to order the pappy flight) and it’s great stuff with notes of chocolate, plums, dark raisins, gold raisins, and spices.
Château de Ravignan Bas-Armagnac 1985
About this bottle
Chateau de Ravignan is a historic castle in the Bas-Armagnac region of Armagnac. Grapes have been planted since 1732, and the vineyards surround a church from the 16th century. This land feels out of time, and the brandies produced here have the same noble heritage of Louis the 4th. Because of the estates long run, the armagnacs are never rushed to the market, rather they enjoy a long slumber in the cool, damp cellar. This creates the perfect atmosphere for a natural, gradual reduction in alcohol over the almost three decades they spend in barrel. This is truly a craft affair with under 4,000 bottles made a year.
