DARROZE ARMAGNAC FRANCE Guided by his visionary instinct, Francis Darroze realizes that Armagnac can be worked just like wine: with a unique domain, no blending and in small and perfectly traceable batches. A vision and devotion he shared with his son Marc, today at the helm of Armagnacs Darroze, offering a great variety of rare armagnacs that

Often considered the preferred grape variety for aging, we are here offering Armagnac made from the Baco grape variety, unaged, as if it just came out of the still. In its intense nose, you will discover fruity aromas (mirabelle plum, white peach and fresh grapes) as well as herb aromas (fennel, mint) offering a very pleasant nose, almost crispy. On the palate, this Blanche is supple with a dry profile. The intensity is pronounced with an ample mouth. Spicy notes of pepper prolong the pleasure. Darroze Blanche Armagnac Folle Blanche 98PF / 700ML The Folle Blanch variety is the historical grape variety of Armagnac. It has long been the only one planted in Gascony (before the phylloxera crisis) and was then called the Piquepoult of the country. It is known for producing very fine and delicate armagnacs. The intensity of the nose is very distinct: very fruity (grapefruit, plum, fresh grape) and spicy (Sichuan pepper). One could use it in a

In Gascony, this grape variety is used for distillation (50% of distillations) as well as being a part of the composition of wines from the Côtes de Gascogne country. It usually brings

balance and finesse. Its nose is sharp, of medium intensity, smooth and very delicate. Classic aromas such as grape, plum, and quince meet more surprising ones such as fresh cane and cane sugar. This Blanche isn’t sweet yet silky and delicate. Beautiful aromas of bitter almond, vine flower and raisins highlight that finesse.
