Delord Coffret Découverte 10, 20 et 30 Ans
- Ageing Three Bas-Armagnacs aged 10, 20 and 30 years, in 20 cl bottles

The 30-year-old, deep amber with old copper glints, offers vanilla, oak and marzipan, followed by rancio, woodland undergrowth and liquorice. All three are at 40% vol., presented in a wooden gift box.
