Castarede 1987 Bas Armagnac 40% 700ml Shiraz substituting wheat for rye grainAged in oak barrels. This vintage bottled in 2016 has been aging for 29 years in oak barrels. This 1987 vintage is a powerful expression, fresh and fruit driven on the nose. Hints of liquorice as well. Its not as earthy as some other Armagnacs, but still definitely in the style and very enjoyable. For more Armagnac, click HERE
