Founded in 1893 and to this day continuing to make Armagnac in the Bas-Armagnac region with the fourth generation taking over the reigns. This 25 year is a stunning example of what you should expect from top notch producer. Pruney , cinnamon, clovey, Christmas cake and rancio. The flavors on the palate are integrated seamlessly with the alcohol. It's a mouth-coating, sensational spirit with a finish that endures.
Quick recap on Armagnac five classifications: -VS: aged a minimum of two years in oak -VSOP: aged a minimum of four years -Napoleon/Extra/XO: aged a minimum of six years -Hors d’Age: aged a minimum of ten years -Vintage Armagnac: aged at least 10 years and contains spirit from a single year The 4th generation of the Delord family is today running the operation that started in the late 19th century. Elegant, nutty, caramel/almond pastry. The finish is another great aspect of a well made spirit and in this case, you get lingering notes of caramel, almond and nuts. Well balanced, you don't really feel the alcohol as it is very well integrated. And on top of that, this 25 years old Armagnac tastes like it should have hurt your wallet.
