Originating from the prestigious Bas-Armagnac region, this Armagnac, distilled from the 2010 vintage (50% ABV, 70 cl), perfectly captures the soul of Domaine Clotte de Manon.
Produced in Ayzieu, within the Bas-Armagnac appellation, and crafted in the spirit of the Darroze family’s long-standing distillation tradition, it reflects both terroir and heritage. The “sables fauves” soils lend the distillate a distinct minerality, while maturation in oak barrels for at least 13 years preserves its character and adds remarkable depth.
The nose reveals figs, plums, and dark fruit notes, interwoven with hints of chocolate and delicate spices — classic Bas-Armagnac characteristics.
On the palate, it is rounded and rich, balancing warm maturity with velvety texture. Flavours of dried fruit, honey, vanilla, oak, and spice dominate, leading to a deep, lingering finish with nuances of tobacco and gentle smoke.
Domaine Clotte de Manon 2010 is a masterful expression that bridges the uniqueness of the estate and the timeless Bas-Armagnac tradition. Crafted both for immediate enjoyment and as a collectible treasure, it appeals to those who appreciate authentic, matured brandies from the southwest of France.
