Details
A wonderfully run firm with lots of good armagnacs. Despite its young age, this 15 year old is really fine, showing good balance and fruit.
Additional Information
| Aroma | Prunes and dried fruits and an aromatic richness with notes of soft spices |
|---|---|
| Distillation | Distilled at around 57 - 60 degrees. Lower than other brandies, providing greater wine flavours but less refinement than cognacs |
| Flavour | Plums and prunes with some delicious almond nutty tones and notes of soft spices such as cinnamon |
| Grape Variety | Ugni Blanc, Folle Blanche and Baco |
| Reduction and Strength | Delord minimise their dilutions wherever possible, but all of their armagnacs are bottled at 40% abv. |
| Viticulture | The climate is soft and humid with sunny autumns and the soil is made of siliceous clay which is poor in lime, giving Bas Armagnacs a lightness and fragrance with subtle tastes |
