Six nearly vanished grape varieties revived on a single parcel, Armagnac from before phylloxera. Domaine d'Aurensan's Le Carré des Fantômes is among the most singular and sought-after armagnacs of the Gers, with rare complexity from its old mixed plantings.
Armagnac Parcellaire Le Carré des Fantômes
Produced as a micro-parcel expression on confidential terroir where some of the appellation's oldest vines still grow, Le Carré des Fantômes from Domaine d'Aurensan is one of the most singular and sought-after armagnacs of the Gers. Its name refers to a tiny parcel, isolated within an old tangle of vinerows now vanished, with naturally very limited production. The vineyard holds ancient, varied plantings, often intercropped, that give rise to a distillate of rare complexity.
The nose opens on deep notes of dried fruits, preserved plum, beeswax and soft spices, with a light woody veil that speaks to long, controlled ageing. On the palate, the texture is ample, velvety, almost caressing, carried by remarkable concentration. Aromas evolve toward fig, blonde tobacco, vanilla, walnut and a fine chocolatey touch. The finish, seemingly endless, mingles aromatic nobility, precision and perfectly melded warmth.
An armagnac for meditation, intense and refined, best enjoyed slowly on its own, or alongside dark chocolate, a delicate cigar, or walnut tart. A rare bottle for lovers of very old eaux-de-vie with character.
