Dartigalongue Armagnac VSOP

• Ageing Blend aged a minimum of 4 years

The Dartigalongue VSOP brings together young Bas-Armagnac eaux-de-vie, aged a minimum of four years, selected for their fruitiness and softness. It offers aromas of plum and pear, leading to a finish of sweet almond. The house presents it as a fine introduction to its style, with a very approachable character; since the new range launched in October 2025, it is bottled at 42% vol., a strength which, in their view, adds balance and aromatic depth. At the table: smoked speck, aged Comté, apricot tart. As a cocktail, a fine à l'eau or a Sidecar.

How it is made

In 1838, Pascal DARTIGALONGUE founded his Armagnac house in Nogaro, in the Gers, a region that produces some of the finest growths. Their expertise has been handed down through five generations, each carrying out with dedication the painstaking and demanding work of ageing. Every year, they distil white wines from the most prestigious origin: Bas-Armagnac. Their eaux-de-vie mature in oak casks and are kept for many years in their centuries-old cellars.
