Comte de Lauvia Fine Armagnac
Armagnac — Armagnac, France

Not very thick though heavily perfumed and really fresh aroma full of citruses and ripe berries. Some tangerines as well, chocolate with citrus filling and surprisingly pleasant and refreshing spirituousness.
The taste is fabulously intense, full-bodied, sweet and rich for a 4yo spirit. Much of raisins, both dark and milk chocolate, tender and freshly baked croissant, air-dried grapes (resembling to Amarone), brown sugar, pipe tobacco, sweet black cherry.
The finish is long and massive with various nice sweet and spicy notes like cloves and nutmeg and a hint of mint.
This Fine Armagnac fellow is really doing fine and drinking it might as well be compared to tasting a rich and warm dessert in a vibey, cozy cafe during the rain. There are many relaxing, tobacco notes that completes this "wine-ish" profile.
Well, there is truly some luck in coming across such a young but rich and intense exemplar, and this fact makes me one more step closer to becoming an armagnac fan. Or, at least, to trying the next one in their range.

I'll have to look out for a younger variety, the older ones I've had have been slightly overwooded for my taste. Nice review :-)
