Dartigalongue Armagnac Vintage 1974

  • Ageing 1974 vintage, a single harvest

Dartigalongue holds the Entreprise du Patrimoine Vivant label, a French government distinction recognising outstanding artisan expertise in the craft of ageing Armagnac. This 1974 vintage shows what that craft can achieve. The nose combines spices, white flowers, dry walnut and a noble rancio.

A 70 cl bottle in a gift box, for a birth, a wedding or a 1974 anniversary.
