The Story

At the heart of Bas-Armagnac, Maison Baron Gaston Legrand, founded in Lannepax over a century ago, perpetuates the art of vintage eaux-de-vie. This 1981 vintage perfectly embodies the elegance of the Gascon terroir: a spirit patiently aged in oak barrels for several decades, where time has chiseled every nuance. Today, the Lhéraud family watches over this living heritage, a symbol of rare and timeless expertise.

The Vinification

Distilled at low proof according to the traditional method and aged for a long time in Gascon oak barrels, this Bas Armagnac develops deep and harmonious aromas of candied fruits, prune, vanilla, honey, and sweet spices. The interaction with the wood allows for controlled micro-oxygenation, which softens the tannins and enriches the spirit's structure. The sandy-clay soils, rich in iron oxides, bring finesse, balance, and complexity to this exceptional vintage.

The Tasting

The Bas Armagnac Baron Gaston Legrand 1981 reveals an intense and harmonious nose, with notes of baked apple, apricot, and dried fruits. On the palate, it is both round and elegant, offering a perfect balance between power and finesse. The long and persistent finish unveils a subtle spicy thread, highlighting the complexity and harmony of this very beautiful vintage. To be enjoyed neat or given for a special occasion, this vintage is an example of the traditional excellence of Maison Baron Gaston Legrand.
