Dartigalongue Armagnac Vintage 1997

  • Ageing Vintage 1997, single harvest
  • Awards Gold medal, Concours Général Agricole de Paris 2023

Awarded a gold medal at the Concours Général Agricole de Paris in 2023, this 1997 vintage is one of the most decorated in the Dartigalongue collection. The nose opens on smoky notes that quickly give way to yellow fruits, peach and exotic fruits, along with floral touches. The palate is light on entry, with sweet almond and pastry notes, before the finish turns drier and cacao-laced. This journey from sweetness to cacao makes it a natural companion to coffee. Presented in a gift box, it marks a birth or a wedding from 1997.
