- Description
- Distilled in 1963 at Chateau de Gaube and aged for 60 years in French oak, this Armagnac from Darroze represents the pinnacle of patience and barrel craft. The extended maturation has developed complex layers of rhubarb and liquorice with underlying notes of walnut, tobacco, and roasted spices that speak to decades of gradual oxidation. The spirit carries the depth and richness that only six decades in oak can achieve. This is a collector's expression for those seeking a living piece of Armagnac history.
