KORESKA-GILLET X.O.
Ten years minimum in French oak and superlative blending of Ugni Blanc and Baco lend a depth of structure to the 10 Year Old. Here, we find gentle notes of cinnamon, woody notes and generous grilled almonds. Still young enough to merit a place in a powerful, alcoholic cocktail, it is nevertheless, very much a standalone Armagnac, worthy of a few moments of guiltless pleasure.
