For almost two centuries now, the illustrious Château de Hontambère has graced maps of the Armagnac region with its presence. The moniker "Hontambère" translates to “fountain most fair,” and was born from the awe-inspiring fountain that calls the castle home. It is fed by an underground source known to locals for its unrivaled purity. Tucked away in the heart of "la France Profonde," Armagnac remains a bastion of bucolic charm, a quality that shines through in the Spirits, having remained blissfully untouched by modernity's rapid-fire pace. Hontambère is the very epitome of the smooth, subtle, and fragrant style that is the hallmark of the Armagnac region's finest offerings.
This Hontambère Ténarèze XO Armagnac is a splendid fusion of a 700-year-old heritage and avant-garde artistry, crafted without messing with the hue, artificial flavors, or watering down. The discerning cellar master, Sylvain, carefully curates and bottles each precious drop of this cask-strength elixir on-site at the domain, preserving the essence of each barrel. Pure and unmatched in its taste, aroma, and essence, it impresses with a medley of vanilla and plum with delicately wooden flavors. Bottled at an unapologetic 53.2% ABV, it is the embodiment of the identity of the Hontambère Domain.
