Francis Darroze Description
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.
Step into a world of unparalleled refinement with the Darroze Les Grands Assemblages 40 Years Armagnac. At 40 years, this assemblage sits at a significant milestone in the Darroze portfolio, offering a rich tapestry of flavors that range from the spirited fruitiness of its younger components to the profound spice and candied fruits of its middle years, culminating in the chocolate and coffee notes that herald its maturity.
How to drink
To experience the full majesty of this 40-year-old blend, enjoy it neat or with a slight dilution to open up its intricate array of aromas and flavors. It stands as a perfect digestif, offering a moment of contemplation and pleasure after a fine meal.
