DELORD BOX 2 VERRES - ARMAGNAC 20 YEARS

  • Ageing Blend, 20-year-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

This gift set brings together a 70 cl bottle of Delord's 20-year-old and two glasses to enjoy it with. The Armagnac is a blend of Bas-Armagnacs aged at least twenty years, described by the house as pastry-like: vanilla, brioche and almond on the nose, cinnamon and dried apricot on the palate. The house recommends taking your time: observe the colour, inhale the aromas, then taste and appreciate the length. Bottled at 40% vol., it makes a fine gift for a couple, parents or a spirit-loving friend.
