  1. Delord 1983 Bas Armagnac (700ml)
    Delord 1983 Bas Armagnac (700ml)
    Delord is siturated in Bas-Armagnac, in the village of Lannepax, the ancestral home of the Delord family who have been distilling for generations. Their pride and joy is their old Sier Armagnac alambics, which produce less than 30 litres of eau-de-vie an hour. their cellars contain some incredibly old and treasured vintages and include more than 700 oak barrels that protect and age the Armagnac eau-de-vie dating from the 20th Century to the present day.

    The 1983 is in a lovely spot with plenty of time under its belt to give that mellow, rancio richness and buttery soft palate with poached pear dried red fruits, pastry and more grilled hazelnut on lurking in the background. While it is plump and soft it still feels lively with a gentle zing and freshness.
