The Darroze selection, Les Grands Assemblages
For over 20 years, Marc Darroze has dedicated much energy and passion to Armagnac. Through contact with winemakers, distillers, coopers, and Gascon breeders, Marc Darroze has been able to understand the diversity and nobility of our profession.
In the family home, the aging of his Armagnacs has become more precise and refined, and his expertise is now complete.
This vintage 12-year-old Darroze Armagnac is offered in a 70 cl bottle in a wooden box.
A lover of his South-West and its ancient tradition, this cult chef of Landes gastronomy initiated his son Francis to the culinary art, to great wines, and to fine Gascon brandies. It was by cultivating this taste for tradition and authenticity that Francis Darroze, by traveling with his father, an informed and demanding oenophile, through this famous terroir of Bas-Armagnac and tasting hidden treasures deep within small estates, became a true scout of proprietary Armagnacs.
The first discoveries date back to the 1950s & 60s, then intensified from the 1970s with the construction of a cellar specifically dedicated to aging.
His son Marc, an oenologist by training, followed in his footsteps in 1996. Both complementary, both "treasure hunters", as Martine Nouet called them in her book "Eaux-de-vie: le guide", they have crisscrossed the Armagnac lands for all these years in search of this liquid gold that they offer you.
Treasure hunters first out of taste, but also to satisfy a loyal clientele looking for quality brandies, they were together discoverers of Armagnacs. Today, Marc Darroze alone oversees the company, Francis Darroze having taken a well-deserved active retirement. He continues the work of guardian, sometimes of an initiated antique dealer by his father, to make these treasures accessible to us.
