DARROZE Armagnac "Domaine de la Poste" 1975 - 70cl

Wine Region: Armagnac - France

Grape: 100 % uni blanc

Tasting notes: Yellow color with golden tints. The nose is very fine, typical of an armagnac produced in the Tenareze area, with light and delicate aromas of vanilla, linden, pear and dried fruit. This finesse is also present on the palate, thanks to the silky and delicate tanins. Some dried fruit aromas (almond, walnut) complete the bouquet.

Matured in oak cask 50 years

About the winery:
As the son of acclaimed chef Jean Darroze, Francis had a natural inclination to the culinary arts and a taste for tradition and authenticity. He channelled this into a passioned search for quality individual estate Armagnacs, starting as a trader and producer of vintage Bas-Armagnacs in 1974. With the utmost respect for the spirit, alcohol levels are reduced through years of evaporation through ageing — never through dilution with water. Blending and colouring agents are also prohibited. And to prolong the ageing process, the Armagnac is only bottled when ordered. The business is now in the hands of Francis' son Marc, a trained oenologist.
