Janneau XO is a blend of eaux-de-vie coming mainly from the area of Bas Armagnac and Tenareze.
Clear orange-coppery amber with burnished copper highlights. Aroma of
leathery vanilla impregnated stewed plums, cherry, kirsch, blackberries and vanilla with dried chili and cinnamon spice and cloves. Notes of cider apple fruit with floral violet, nutmeg, hazelnut, amaretto biscuit and freshly sawn oak. Taste is quite intense. Very well balanced palate, nice wood in the middle with sweet, mouth filling flavors that linger on to drying oak tannins, tobacco, quince, orange marmalade, almond, faint coffee and kirsch. Long dry finish. Light cinnamon and peppery spiced oak with tobacco. Possibly the most awarded Armagnac on the planet
