Grand Armagnac XO - Maison Janneau

 Janneau Grand Armagnac XO is aged in 450-liter barrels made from oak from the Limousin and Monlezun forests. Each barrel has different characteristics and, depending on the type of oak used, provides the distillate with different shades of tannins and woody aromas. Over the years, the spirit also acquires its typical amber color. The aging takes place in ancient   Cellars built in 1851, where approximately 10% of the region's total Armagnac stock rests and ages in complete silence. Since 1851, Janneau has been universally recognized for its extensive experience in producing quality Armagnac. Only the finest wines are selected from the Bas-Armagnac and Ténarèze sub-regions, a guarantee of consistent quality.   unique style   and the mastery of the production phases have forged the reputation of this brand as one of the   world leaders in Armagnac.

 Tasting Notes: Amber in color with light orange highlights, it offers a richly aromatic bouquet on the nose, refined and elegant with sensations of licorice, cocoa, tobacco, spicy notes of pepper and cloves, dried flowers, and a woody finish. On the palate, it is striking for its roundness, fullness, and balance. It matches the aroma. Best enjoyed neat, in an armchair in front of a crackling fireplace.

 The Distillery: Maison Janneau, founded by Pierre Etienne Janneau in 1851 in Condom, Armagnac. Its history is the tale of four generations who have passed down the secret of Grand Armagnac from father to son. One of the few producers to continue distilling and aging its products in its region of origin, it is today one of the most important Armagnac producers.
