DELORD ARMAGNAC 20 YEARS D'ÂGE MAGNUM 150 cl

  • Ageing Blend, 20 years old
  • Cask aged in Gascon oak casks in the cellars of Delord at Lannepax
  • Grape varieties a blend of the four traditional Armagnac grape varieties: Ugni Blanc, Colombard, Baco and Folle Blanche

A generous format for a celebratory meal, a milestone birthday, or a corporate gift. Bottled at 40% vol.

PalatePastry notes, with cinnamon and dried apricot

Serve with Neat, or alongside a cigar, a chocolate dessert or an arabica coffee, as the house suggests
