1978 Delord Vintage Armagnac | 500ML Tasting Notes

Nose: Dried prune, stewed plum, and candied orange peel layered with vanilla and toasted almond. Hints of cocoa, leather, and antique oak emerge with aeration.

Palate: Silky and rounded with caramelized fig, honeyed raisin, and roasted hazelnut. Nutmeg, clove, and fine oak tannins provide structure and balance.

Finish: Long and warming. Lingering dried fruit, gentle spice, and elegant rancio notes fade slowly and gracefully.
