Castarède Bas Armagnac XO is composed entirely of 100% Folle Blanche from the estate's own vineyard — a fine, floral, and elegant Armagnac from the oldest Armagnac trading house in the world.
Maison Castarède, founded in 1832 in southwest France, is now run by sixth-generation Florence Castarède. This XO is made exclusively from Folle Blanche, a traditional grape that yields delicate, floral eaux-de-vie of great elegance. While the XO designation requires a minimum of 10 years in oak, Castarède over-delivers, aging its XO considerably longer for added depth and rancio character.
Tasting Notes
- Nose: Cigar tobacco, dried herbs and flowers, and toffee

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is Folle Blanche? A traditional Armagnac grape variety that produces fine, often floral eau-de-vie with notable elegance.
- What does XO mean? "Extra Old" — an Armagnac aged a minimum of 10 years in oak. Castarède typically ages its XO well beyond that minimum.
