In Gascony, this grape is both used in distillation (over 50% of the distillation) and in the making of Cotes de Gascogne wines. It often brings balance and finesse. The nose is straightforward, moderately intense, smooth and very delicate, with typical aromas (grape, plum, quince) and more surprising ones (fresh cane, cane sugar). This Blanche is dry, without sweetness, silky and still very delicate. Beautiful aromas of bitter almond, vine flower and raisin reinforce this finesse. Very long on the palate. May be enjoyed on its own or as a long drink with combinations like cucumber, elderflower or orgeat syrup.

Monthly Special

Darroze Armagnac

The story begins around a table with Jean Darroze at his restaurant in Villeneuve-de-Marsan. With a deep love for his native Southwest and its ancient traditions, this iconic cook of Landes gastronomy introduces his son Francis to the culinary arts, fine wines, and the exquisite eaux-de-vie of Gascony.

From the late 1960s, Francis Darroze intensifies his visits to the lands of Bas Armagnac, selecting, maturing, and bottling his most treasured discoveries. Maison Armagnac Darroze is born, and the adventure begins.

The Vineyard

Today, around thirty estates contribute to this extraordinary collection, perfecting its aging process in cellars in both Roquefort and Labastide d’Armagnac.

Rare and historical pieces, as well as eaux-de-vie freshly distilled by small producers or renowned itinerant distillers, have been selected and overseen for over 20 years by Marc Darroze. He shares the same values and passion as his grandfather Jean and his father Francis.

Local Craftsmanship

Guided by his visionary instinct, Francis Darroze soon realised that Armagnac could be crafted much like wine: with a unique domain, no blending, and in small, perfectly traceable batches. He shared this vision and dedication with his son Marc, who now leads Armagnacs Darroze. Today, they offer a wide variety of rare Armagnacs that highlight the work of local craftsmen.
