Darroze Cave à Armagnac
A little like the idea of a cigar cellar, Darroze offers a selection of 9 different armagnacs of nine different ages and nine different styles. Their Choice is not innocent but challenging. This selection presented in THE ARMAGNAC CELLAR will allow you, and others, to discover the diversity and variety of a small part of the Armagnacs in the Darroze Collection. The cellar comes with a 'Carte des Armagnacs' in which it will print the characteristics of the Grand Bas-Armagnacs : information about the property and tasting notes. 1990 Domaine Au Martin 1987 Domaine de Piheron 1981 Domaine de Jouanchicot 1980 Domaine de Busquet 1975 Domaine de Salie 1972 Château de Gaube 1966 Château de Gaube 1965 Domaine de Peyrot 1959 Château de Gaube
