Chateau de Pellehaut was named Best Brand Producer in the world 2020 by the International Wine and Spirits Challenge. The fruit of the Armagnac takes center stage here, melding wonderfully with the small hint of vanilla from the wood. It's all distilled from Folle Blanche fruit and it's soft, round and aromatic, but it still has that little bit of rustic brandy flavour typical of old-school Armagnac.
In 2020 Ch Pellehaut was named Best Brandy Producer by the IWSC Challenge. Their 20 year old XO La Fleur De l'Age has also been awarded the trophy for Best Armagnac in the 2018 IWSC Spirits Challenge. Rich and fruity with powerful flavours and this 20 year old shows the characteristic rancio associated with aged brandies.
On a beautifully situated property overlooking the town of Montréal-du-Gers lies Château de Pellehaut. Their VSOP Age Tendre is just 5 years old but was rated Outstanding (96 points) by the IWSC in 2020 "Tremendous nose, so elegant, so refined! Slightly soapy start to palate but eventually comes through revealing delicious floral character. Pleasant finish with a little rye toast"
