Dartigalongue Armagnac Vintage 1966

  • Ageing Vintage 1966, single harvest

Dartigalongue sums up its style in two words, freshness and elegance, and this 1966 harvest illustrates them well. The nose is floral and elegant, with notes of candied lemon. The palate, fairly dry, brings a mentholated touch and a beautiful freshness, then the finish settles on sweet almond and dried flower. Aged in oak casks at Nogaro, in the Gers, this vintage is best enjoyed slowly, in small sips, allowing the glass to open up. A bottle to celebrate a birthday or a wedding anniversary from 1966.
