BHAKTA 1989 Armagnac

BHAKTA 1989 Armagnac

The pure distillation of the year 1989 

BHAKTA 1989 — produced only from Ugni Blanc grapes grown on clay and limestone soil in Armagnac’s Tenarèze sub-region — shows a striking nose of exotic citrus, caramel, wax, and old library books, followed by an explosively lively palate of pepper, zesty citrus, resin, and old oak. In history, 1989 was defined by uprisings against Communism in China and Czechoslovakia, the launch of Lexus and Infiniti, and the release of the Nintendo GameBoy.

The Finest Stocks

All of our Single Vintage Armagnacs come from Chateau BHAKTA in Condom, France

After a harvest from the vineyards in the Armagnac region and distillation in wood-fired alembic stills, the long aging process in French Oak barrels begins.

Our cellarmaster, Bernard, who has tended the Chateau’s stocks for over 50 years, ensures each vintage is aged to perfection.

“In this vintage paradigm, every release is special, limited in quantity — there’s only so much of any given spirit made in any given year.”
“You don’t have to love brandy to love this. . . Terrific sipping and thus an epic preview of things to come from the nascent producer.”
