Darroze Grand Bas Armagnac Les Grands Assemblages 40 years Carafe 43% 700ml

Description

Another exceptional price/age ratio for a wood-aged spirit can be found in this majestic 40-year-old Bas Armagnac (the age statement here refers to the youngest Armagnac in the blend). The diversity in crus, vintages, grape varieties and styles has allowed Marc Darroze to work on his “Les Grands Assemblages” (The Great Blends), chosen for their complementary characteristics, the selected Armagnacs in each bottling are of different ages. After over four decades in 400-litre barrels, expect this to have evolved layers of sweet spices, candied fruits, rancio and super soft, round tannins.
