1976 Francis Darroze Domaine de Jaulin Grand Bas Armagnac (700ml)

Darroze's "Unique Collection" presents Bas Armagnacs of intense character, coming from single estates and single vintages. This edition was produced from Ugni blanc and Baco 22 A grapes and distilled in 1976 followed by 39 years in oak. It was finally bottled in December 2015 at 41.5% Alc/Vol. Very reasonably priced for a wood aged spirit of this pedigree.

Notes from the producers... Nice amber colour, with darker tints. Very fine and complex nose with some fruits flavours (fig, apricot, prune), spices (cinnamon, liquorice). On the palate, very rich attack. Very high quality tannins, fine and silky. Matured fruits and spices aromas. Very long on the palate.
