An exceptional 1963 single-estate Armagnac, patiently matured to reveal depth, elegance, and quiet complexity. This release reflects a composed, mature style shaped by time rather than intensity.
The aromatic profile leans toward dried plums, nuts, and tobacco, while the palate offers a rounded mouthfeel, gentle richness, and a lingering, warm finish touched by subtle spice notes. A refined Armagnac designed for reflective enjoyment.
The story of this family Armagnac began with Jean Darroze – a renowned and passionate regional chef. Together with his son Francis, and inspired by their family’s culinary tradition, he started collecting Armagnacs from various estates across the region. Later, Francis’s son Marc joined his father, and together they became the famous “Treasure Hunters,” as one French author called them – tireless explorers of the secrets behind this golden spirit.
Today, the company is led by Marc. Darroze family Armagnacs are recognised as some of the most highly regarded in the world.
