L'Encantada schreibt zum Cassou 1987: "In the commune of Arthez-d'Armagnac in Bas-Armagnac, Domaine Del Cassou produces eaux-de-vie exclusively from the Baco grape variety, some of whose vineyards are over a centuryold. These eaux-de-vie are naturally fruity, thanks to the use of red oak barrels during the maturing phase of the Armagnacs.
Distillation is carried out using a mobile still."
Tasting Notes
On the nose: "Old plum, notes of ripe morello cherry, salted butter caramel ice cream. Quince, nougat, fresh almonds, very ripe pineapple, ripe banana, the flavours of a cauldron with a hint of peach compote.
Plenty of ripe, cooked fruit to tantalise the nostrils, complementing the woody aromas. You want to dive into the glass and rediscover the scents of the hidden Armagnac cellars."
On the palate: "The wine is full of fruit, pineapple, banana, mango, peach, ripe melon - fat, texture,mache and deliciousness. There are always those pastry notes that you get hooked on. Freshness and liquorice, with the sweet sensation ofchewing on a stick of liquorice.
Die Renaissance Collection 2023
"Encantada Renaissance collection is a real tribute tothe art of distilling armagnac. The three top-of-the-range armagnacs in the range are the fruit of ancestral know-how.
Each bottle is unique, with a fresco hand-painted by a talented artist, making it not only an exceptional spirit, but also a collector's item.
Kogaone is a multi-media and multi-technique painter from Metz (France). His works leave a lasting impression on the viewer with their dark irony, varied palettes and unusual, even disturbing combinations.
His work is as much inspired by the works of masters as it is by the human being embedded in the codes of his time.
An attentive observer of his contemporaries and their often contradictory natures, he explores the alteration, paradox and discomfort that arise when the familiar is distorted or fractured by external influences.
He distorts a scene from life, displaces or deforms fragments, or combines/opposes photorealism with amore raw, expressionist style of painting."
