A single-estate 1971 Armagnac, matured over decades to reveal a calm, rounded, and classically aged profile. Time has shaped this release into a balanced and quietly expressive spirit.
The nose shows dried fruit, nuts, and tobacco, while the palate is smooth and composed, finishing long with gentle spice accents. A refined Armagnac for slow appreciation.
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.
