Darroze Les Grand Assemblages 8 Yr Old Armagnac 70cl Unflitered inspired by the recipe usedLes Grands Assemblages is an age statement range of Bas Armagnacs bottled at 43%, serving as a great introduction to the work of master bottlers Darroze, who have previously only released single estate vintage armagnacs at cask strength. This 8 year old bottling, although older than most XO cognacs, really lets the spirit sing, with plenty of vibrant stone and berry fruit flavours.
