PROFILE
Founded in 1832 under Napoleon III, Castarede is the oldest Armagnac trading house in existence. Baron Haussmann who was the sub-prefect of Nerac, initially encouraged their ancestors to become the first traders in the register of commerce. Castarede's ancient and persistent quality is traced through the best range of vintage Armagnacs in France, all the way back to the end of the 19th century. But their superiority is that they can guarantee the absolute authenticity with the 'Indirect Ministry of Taxation' archives, the Excise Taxes, and very few houses of Armagnac can do that with certainty.

TASTING NOTES
An XO must be at least 6 years, our Armagnac XO is aged minimum 20 years in oak. The robe is clear and coppery. The character is intense and vibrant. Flavours of candied chestnut and dried currants mingled with luscious oaky notes of cigar box and sandalwood. The palate is perfectly balanced. A superb Armagnac to savour by a log fire.
