Darroze 1976 Armagnac

Darroze 1976 Armagnac is a vintage French Armagnac distilled in 1976 and selected and matured by the Darroze family as part of its long-standing focus on individual estate and vintage expressions. Extended oak maturation gives the spirit a deeply developed character, combining mature fruit, dried fruit, warming spice, toasted nuances and the complex rancio associated with long-aged Armagnac. Because multiple Darroze 1976 estate bottlings exist, estate-specific details should only be assigned once the exact Alberta SKU is confirmed.
