Founded in 1893 by Prosper Delord, distiller and cellar master, Maison Delord embodies the excellence and tradition of Armagnac, passed down from generation to generation. The 1962 vintage, the result of this family expertise, is a rare gem, reflecting more than sixty years of aging in oak barrels, where every detail has been carefully considered to offer an unforgettable tasting experience.
In the glass, the 1962 vintage stands out with its deep color and mahogany and golden highlights, revealing a concentration and richness acquired over decades. The nose is exceptionally elegant, blending notes of prune, vanilla, caramel, and honey, enriched after aeration with hints of roasted coffee, noble wood, and a subtle touch of orange liqueur. On the palate, it reveals a velvety texture and captivating roundness. The flavors of candied fruit, vanilla, and sweet spices harmonize perfectly, while nuances of leather and tobacco add exceptional depth and length. The finish is long-lasting and leaves an impression of sweetness.
Delord 1962 is an exceptional Armagnac, combining power, subtlety, and balance. Each sip is an invitation to discover the heritage of a house that has preserved the soul of its terroirs and traditions. A must for lovers of rare spirits and great vintages.
