Château de Gaube 1964/2023 59 Year Old Armagnac Darroze (70cl, 43%)

This Armagnac from the 1964 vintage was bottled by Darroze in 2023 after 59 years of ageing. It matured in oak casks and is bottled without colouring and without chill filtration. Darroze is a family company specialising in Armagnac, and this release belongs to its Unique Collection of vintage Armagnacs. The long cask ageing gives it depth and complexity. The nose brings ripe fruit such as quince and apple, with dried fruit notes of walnut and almond. The palate is balanced, combining fruity and nutty flavours with fine spice. The finish is long and elegant, with ripe fruit and a subtle wood note.
