Bas Armagnac Delord 25 year 750 ml

Delord 25 Year is a Bas-Armagnac, the French brandy distilled from white wine in Gascony and rested a quarter-century in oak. Maison Delord has run its stills since 1893, and the long aging shows: dried prune and fig on the nose, then toffee, walnut, candied orange, and the leathery rancio that only decades in barrel produce. Bottled at 40%, it stays supple rather than hot, closing on oak spice and dark honey that runs long. Armagnac is single-region and traditionally column-distilled, which is why it reads earthier and more rustic than most Cognac. Serve it after dinner in a tulip glass, neat, or alongside a square of dark chocolate.
