This is an exceptional Armagnac from the Bas-Armagnac region, crafted by the renowned Darroze family, whose name has been synonymous with high-end Armagnac craftsmanship for more than half a century. This edition is a single domaine distillate, produced at Domaine de la Boubee, located in Castelnau-d’Auzan, at the heart of the Bas-Armagnac appellation.
The grapes used for this Armagnac grow in “sables fauves” sandy soils, which lend the spirit a distinct minerality and elegance. Distilled in 2009 and aged for over a decade in oak casks, it achieves a perfect balance between fruitiness, oak maturity, and spicy finesse. Alcohol content – approximately 49.5%.
The nose reveals floral and honeyed notes delicately intertwined with hints of buttery brioche, fruit compote, and light pastry. It’s a bright, elegant, and inviting bouquet that combines youthful freshness with the first signs of maturity.
On the palate, the Armagnac is smooth, harmonious, and refined, with layers of dried fruits, honey, vanilla, and oak spice. The texture is silky and well-balanced, leading to a long, elegant finish with subtle touches of tobacco and gentle smoke.
Domaine de la Boubee 2009 is a youthful yet sophisticated Armagnac, beautifully expressing both the estate’s terroir and the Darroze family’s distillation precision. It unites bright fruitiness with the warmth of oak – a spirit made both for immediate enjoyment and collecting.
