1983 Domaine de Maouhum 32 Year Old Armagnac - 2015 bottling - 42%, $100
Nose: Leather, tobacco, earthy, pepper.
Taste: This has a rich and savory taste. This really sings. The initial sip is engaging and has a bit of magic to it. There is rich oak spice which overpowers the fruit. The fruit is very muted, I get a little bit of plum wine but not much else in the way of fruit. The finish leaves some carmel but overall this is dry and oaky.
Conclusion: This is bold and oaky and really tasty. It's dry, this is a celebration of oak but it's still balanced. This was very, very good.
