REVIEW # 2 - ARMAGNAC               19.12.2023

Domaine de Jouatmaou 2006

ALC: unknown 
Bottled by: OB
Bottled: unknown
Number of bottles: unknown (different sizes available)

DESCRIPTION:

A young Bas Armagnac from Domaine de Jouatmaou.

So far, I only had the opportunity to taste the 1989 and the even younger 2014 vintage. The 1989 was a great experience.

As I got the 2006 as a sample, I don't have any additional information, as it is not listed on their website. 

COLOUR:
Beautiful golden

NOSE: 

First impression was quiet peachy. After some time, it develops more banana or very ripe mango flavors. But the peach is always showing up. Maybe some a hint of maple syrup. 

PALATE: 

Not that peachy as the nose promised. Here I have more like pineapple or candied orange. Maybe even some grapefruit showing up. 

 
FINISH: 

Long and warming finish.

Some spices, and a little chilly breeze there. The sweet feeling of the palate disappears now, and there is some nice licorice left. 

 
OVERALL IMPRESSION: 

A very nice young Armagnac. Would expect more freshness, but this doesn't effect the result. Well done! 

RESULT: 
- 88/100 -
