Delord - Armagnac - 1981 - 700 ml - Wooden Box
WHAT THE PRODUCERS ARE SAYING
“A distinct character…. All of the history of Armagnac and our house. From 1900 to the present day, our « Paradise » safeguards the bonbonnes that protect our oldest Armagnac vintages.” Sylvain and Jerôme Delord
OUR NOTES
A medium intense amber colour with shades of orange, this 1970 armagnac is round and mellow with flavours of crystallised fruits and nuts.
It was Prosper Delord, a travelling distiller, who initially fell in love with the magnificent eau-de-vie of Armagnac. In 1893, he founded the house of Delord that became the Armagnac Delord Brothers, when his two sons Gaston and Georges took over the alambic still and followed in their father's footsteps with the same passion for Armagnac. Today, Gaston's sons Jacques and Pierre Delord continue the family tradition, along with the next generation, Jerome and Sylvain.
