Gelas Armaganc 1959 700mL -Distilled in 1959 and bottled in 2018, this remarkable wood-aged spirit promises a sublime brandy experience. At around 50-60 years of age, the wood has infused its full quota of tannins and aromas to the liquid.
At this stage, explains Gelas, the Armagnac is typically decanted into glass demijohns where it will continue to age in storehouses built by Baptiste Gélas in 1875. The period in glass continues to develop the brandy, helping to harmonise the aromas and preserve the characteristic rancio notes.
Appearance : Intense topaz amber with gold highlights, bright and limpid.
Nose : Elegant with a multtude of spices, notes of pepper and nuts.
Mouth : the attack is clean, the tannins very rich with beeswax notes and tobacco.
The finish is very rich on the palate on coffee and cocoa.
Empty glass : Dry fruits and tobacco.
