Product Details

Region: Armagnac
Country: France
Type: Armagnac, X.O
SAINT-VIVANT Armagnacs are produced according to the Armagnac certification specifications set out in 1936 which focus on the region’s unique, age-old savoir faire. They are produced from carefully chosen grape varieties (Ugni Blanc, Folle Blanche, Baco) grown in the best regions of Bas Armagnac – which boasts an elegant and assertive character – and Ténarèze – which produces fiery, full-bodied aromas. Their long ageing in local black oak casks allows them to develop fragrances of vanilla, prune, violet and spices, as well as a beautiful amber colour with hints of mahogany.
Tasting notes:
Made with a selection of exceptional Armagnacs that have matured for at least six years in oak casks, SAINT-VIVANT XO has a profound, rich nose with notes of candied orange, plum and coffee. Deep amber in colour, it develops a very balanced bouquet with aromas of candied fruits punctuated with woody, leather and tobacco notes.
