Delord 1986 Armagnac is a rare Bas-Armagnac from the Delord house, distilled in traditional copper stills and aged for decades. It shows a deep amber hue with a concentrated nose of dried fruits, vanilla, and spice, followed by a velvety, balanced palate of dark fruit, caramel, and oak. A collectible vintage best enjoyed neat to savor its quiet complexity; pairs well with dark chocolate or aged cheeses.
Tasting notes:
- Nose: dried plum, prune, fig; vanilla, toffee; faint cocoa and baking spice; oak.
- Palate: full-bodied, silky; dark fruit, caramel, cacao; almond-like nuttiness; spice and oak integration.
- Finish: long and warm; spice, dried fruit, and toffee linger.
