Description: | History,. Cha^teau de Millet is situated just outside the town of Eauze in the Gers, in Gascony in the heart of the Bas Armagnac region. Francis and Lydie De'che, owners, together with their daughter Laurence, who joined them in 1999, follow in the footsteps of the previous five generations by committing themselves to a policy of quality: traditional grape varieties, rational cultivation of the vineyard and constant evolution in the methods and means of vinification. All their Armagnacs are produced exclusively from their own vines of Baco and Ugni Blanc grapes, harvested, vinified and distilled at Cha^teau de Millet. The vines enjoy a north westerly position on the green hills where the soil alternates between clay limestone and the sandy soils known as 'sables fauves'. This specific soil from the Bas-Armagnac area is renowned for its delicate and fruity brandies. The full vineyard is 220 acres, with 25 acres devoted to Armagnac and just under 200 acres of vines for the production of Co^tes de Gascogne wines. Tasting Notes,. Elegant nose with aromas of ageing, clean, well-balanced attack, retroolfaction with notes of liquorice and sweet spices, full-bodied finish. |
