Bas Armagnac Millésimé 2000 40° 2000 Baron Gaston Legrand

In 1998, Cognac Lhéraud expanded and diversified by acquiring the company Baron Gaston Legrand, which had been a traditional Armagnac producer in Lannepax, in the Bas-Armagnac appellation, for over 120 years. The well-preserved buildings, cellars and historic stills are a guarantee of quality, enabling the best possible vinification and excellent distillation of the grape varieties grown, such as Ugni Blanc, Baco, Folle Blanche and Colombard. The distillation of Armagnac differs from that of Cognac in its "continuous distillation" process. As a mark of excellence, all Baron Gaston Legrand Armagnacs are aged in typical barrels made of Gascony oak and Limousin black oak. The estate specializes in the production and maturing of fine vintage Armagnacs. Armagnacs dating back to 1888 can be found in the Lhéraud family's private cellar.
