A single-estate Armagnac from the 1980 vintage, patiently matured to reveal balance, depth, and classical elegance. Extended ageing has shaped a calm, refined expression of Armagnac.
The nose shows dried fruits, nuts, and tobacco, while the palate is rounded and smooth, finishing long with gentle spice warmth. Ideal 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.
