Darroze Domaine de Cantau 1992

The Darroze family has built its reputation on an incredible collection of Armagnacs from the region's finest estates. Each is matured in its own personal piece of oak; the name of the estate, the year of production and the bottling date guarantee this unique diversity. To pRéserver specificities, no blends of Domaines or vintages. So as not to betray the typicities, no "reduction" that would dilute not only the alcoholic strength but also the aromatic power and nuances of the terroir by adding "petites eaux".

The story goes back to the end of the 19th century, when Francis Darroze, a young man with a passion for spirits, began scouring the Armagnac region of southwest France for the best armagnac producers. He was one of the first to realize the importance of pRéserver exceptional quality eaux-de-vie, preserving their authenticity and terroir.

Francis Darroze passed on his passion to his descendants, in particular to Marc Darroze, who played an essential role in the development of the trading house. Marc Darroze travelled the Armagnac region, forging close relationships with local producers and discovering hidden treasures of eaux-de-vie, often aged for many decades. This expertise and commitment to quality make Marc Darroze a respected figure in the world of Armagnac.

They prioritize quality, provenance and authenticity. Each eau-de-vie is meticulously selected, with an emphasis on capturing the distinctive character of the terroir and the producer. This approach allows connoisseurs to discover an exceptional range of armagnacs, from fresh, young vintages to deep, old vintages.

Armagnacs from the house of Darroze are aged in French oak barrels for many years, often well beyond legal requirements. This enables the eaux-de-vie to develop complex aromas and an unrivalled depth of flavour.
