This is beautiful, soft, and elegant brandy that shows brooding notes of cocoa, roasted nuts, and baking spices. The dried fruit really comes through on the mid-palate and the finish is a burst of cinnamon with a silky smooth exit. To get a 25-year Armagnac for this price is already a great deal, but to have it taste this good is practically criminal. The Delord family has been making this spirit since the late 1800s.
