DANIS ARMAGNAC VINTAGE 1982 BRUT DE FÛT

  • Ageing 1982 vintage, cask strength
  • Grape varieties Folle Blanche

According to Victoire and Vincent Piquemal, it was in 1982, at their grandfather's initiative, that Folle Blanche became the only grape variety used for Danis Armagnac. This vintage therefore opens a new chapter. The nose is elegant, with vanilla and warm spices. The palate is direct and full, gaining a mentholated note towards the finish that brings a pleasing freshness, while the well-structured finish leaves a delicious sensation of mentholated liquorice. It is bottled at its natural strength of 45% vol., with no water added.
