old white pineau des charentes 75cl

This old White Pineau des Charentes of minimum 7 years has a golden yellow color with amber nuances, reflecting the ageing in oak.
The nose is dominated by honey and vanilla wood.
The mouth is fresh and complex with notes of apricot stone, honey and rancio balancing roundness and finesse

The sensory notes are characteristic of old Pineau des Charentes. In Charente, we speak of "rancio" to define these notes of aging, characterized by the notes of dried fruits, and more precisely of the nut. The marriage between the wood of the barrel and Pineau des Charentes contributes to this delicate evolution.
