Description
This exceptional 1936 Bas-Armagnac from Domaine Yvan Auban is a rare historical witness. Slowly aged in oak casks over several decades, it embodies the finesse of Gascony’s eaux-de-vie and the sandy-silty terroir of Bas-Armagnac. No blending here — this is a pure vintage, traditionally distilled in a continuous Armagnac still and bottled at its peak maturity.
Blend
100% Baco – a rustic, noble grape variety renowned for long aging potential.
Tasting Notes
• Appearance: Deep mahogany with copper highlights, clear and brilliant
• Nose: Enchanting complexity with notes of stewed plum, beeswax, aged leather, precious woods, vanilla, and a hint of rancio
• Palate: Broad and silky, with astonishing freshness for its age. Flavors of dried fruit, blond tobacco, sweet spices, and bitter chocolate. The finish is endless, with refined oak tones
Cellaring Potential
Ready to enjoy now as a celebration of longevity, but can be kept further in optimal conditions (cool, dark, and stable). This vintage will continue to evolve gracefully once opened.
Food & Armagnac Pairings
Perfect as a neat digestif at room temperature. Also pairs beautifully with a fine cigar, or as a luxurious companion to desserts with prunes or intense dark chocolate.
