Why Liquor Geeks recommends it
This is Armagnac for the drinker who wants to slow down after dinner. Château de Laubade's XO (Extra Old) expression opens with an intense, layered nose of bright orange peel, the warmth of roasted and grilled bread, and a closing touch of cinnamon. The palate follows with savory roundness and a seductive complexity, the flavors knitting together in the integrated, mature way you hope for from an XO. Flavor cues of dried fruit, toasted oak and baking spice give it real depth without losing its sweet, approachable edge. It suits the Cognac drinker curious about France's other great brandy region, and it rewards the collector building out an Armagnac shelf with a bottle from an estate that wears its heritage proudly. We carry it because it shows what Armagnac does well: warmth and character that feel distinct from more familiar brandies, delivered in a refined, harmonious package. Pour it neat at room temperature, ideally with a chocolate dessert and good company nearby.
Pairs well with
- Rich chocolate cake — The producer suggests chocolate cakes, and the Armagnac's orange peel and baking spice notes balance the dessert's sweetness.
- Flambé pie with XO — Flambéing a pie with the same XO Armagnac echoes its cinnamon and dried fruit character right on the plate.
- Lingering after-dinner conversation — As a digestif with savory roundness and toasted oak depth, it is made for slow sipping once the plates are cleared.
