Ararat V.S.O.P. Akhtamar Brandy 700ml

One of the flagship expressions from the Yerevan Brandy Company, founded in 1887 and now part of the Pernod Ricard portfolio. Named for the legendary island monastery on Lake Van, Akhtamar is crafted from Armenian grape distillates aged a minimum of 10 years in Limousin and Caucasian oak, drawing on the same tradition that famously impressed Winston Churchill. Warm amber in the glass with aromas of dried apricot, vanilla, toasted oak, prune, and a hint of dark chocolate. The palate is smooth and well-rounded with notes of honey, walnut, spice, and stone fruit, finishing long and warming with gentle oak. A benchmark Armenian brandy — sip neat or with a single ice cube
