1976 Delord Bas Armagnac (700ml)

Step away from Delord's core range and you get to explore their vintage-dated series. These bottlings frequently deliver greater individuality and texture. The 1976 promises flavours of dried fruits (figs, cherries), chocolate and oak with a slightly rustic rancio character. Patience is a consideration, as these old brandies typically benefit from extended breathing time. Once opened, there's no hurry to finish it. These spirits don't oxidise quickly like a wine or Vintage Port, but they are best consumed within a few years, as recommended by the BNIA (Bureau National Interprofessionnel de l’Armagnac). 40% Alc./Vol.
