Francis Darroze 40 yr Les Grand Assemblages Bas - Armagnac 750ml
Darroze Les Grands Assemblages 40 Years Armagnac
At the ripe age of 40 years, the character of Armagnac is firmly set. Many of the typical markers of a mature Armagnac are starting to take center stage. The caliber of the oak plays a crucial role, since employing a high-quality barrel correctly contributes to the Armagnac's complexity and delicacy. These qualities become fully recognizable and can be thoroughly evaluated after four decades of interaction with the wood.
Eye: An exquisite amber color with orange reflections.
Nose: Fresh woodiness enriched by decades of maturation. Cinnamon and licorice notes dominate.
Palate: An explosion of flavor, with beautifully rounded tannins.
Finish: The finish is remarkable for its aromatic persistence.
