Les Grands Assemblages 12 years old - Bas Armagnac Darroze

Presentation of the Grand Assemblages 12 years old - Bas Armagnac Darroze

From fruity aromas on young blends, to chocolate and coffee flavors for the oldest eaux-de-vie, including spices and candied fruits around 30 years of age, the aromatic palette evolves naturally over the years.

With this 12 year old blend, after 10 years of contact with oak wood, Armagnac begins to take on aromas of aging. The fruit, still very present, is accompanied by initial aromas of sweet spices, licorice and cinnamon. Still fiery, this eau de vie will gain in complexity after a few minutes of aeration in your glass.

HISTORY OF THE DISTILLERY

Francis Darroze , guided by his visionary instinct, realized early on that Armagnac could be worked like wine, on a single estate, without blending, in small, perfectly traceable batches. A vision and dedication that he shares with his son Marc , today at the helm of Armagnacs Darroze , and which offers a wide variety of rare Armagnacs that highlight the work of local artisans. The Darroze family has built its reputation and established its uniqueness through the Unique collection of Armagnacs from the most beautiful properties in the region. Each is aged in a room of oak that is personal to it and each will offer a different character. The name of the property, the year of production and the bottling date guarantee this unique diversity in Armagnac. Also find subtle and mastered blends of Armagnacs from different terroirs, different years and different styles which give each vintage an identity that only the complementarity of the vintages allows. These mastered marriages guarantee a regular taste and balance over time and a varied pleasure depending on the age of each Armagnac offered (8, 12, 20, 30, 40, 50 and 60 years).
