A complex, aromatic, and flavorful Armagnac aged Solera-style.
Château Léberon was originally a medieval fortress built in the fourteenth century. Being in the southwest of France, it was largely spared the ravages of World War and survive to become a stately mansion when purchased by Osmin Rozès in 1939. After restoring the home, he and his children planted grape vines — including Ugni Blanc and Colombard. A few of those original vine survive to this day, but the average age of the vines in more than forty years. The family produces a range of highly-prized, vintage Armagnacs.
Château de Léberon Solera 2001 Armagnac is a bit of a departure for Chateau Léberon. Most of their offerings are specific vintages — reflecting the harvest, weather, and terroir of a single year. This might be considered a more whimsical offering, and the label art reflects this. It is aged by the Solera method, indicating that the Spirit has parts far older than reflected on the label and delivering a rich, complex fragrance and palate. As with all Armagnacs from Chateau Léberon, there are no added colors, flavors, sugars, or anything else to despoil the experience.
Smartass Corner:
It is rare for Solera aging to be used on Armagnac. It is most commonly used for fortified Wines like Sherry and Port, and in better Rums and Single Malt Whiskies.

Ratings & Reviews
Bari,
Loved it!!
Ron,
Sweet, light, and complex with stewed fruit, fig, and oak flavors.
Kaelin,
Very aromatic, light, and well balanced.
Brendan,
Hits the palate nicely with oak, raisin, and an oily bite. The finish leaves something to be desired. Very short. There are certainly better armagnac's at half this price (e.g. Tariquet)
Candice,
Clearly a well made bottle, but the particular palate isn't to my taste. I get dates? And raisin, maybe? It's very sweet.
