Tasting Notes

Appearance

This distinguished Bas-Armagnac presents a beautiful copper colour with warm golden hues and brilliant clarity, displaying the exceptional depth and concentration characteristic of over forty years of patient ageing in oak barrels at the Delord family distillery in Lannepax — the ancestral home of one of Armagnac’s most celebrated and visionary producers.

Aroma

The nose is rich and immediately captivating, with opening aromas of sweet leather, roast almonds and hazelnut alongside toffee apple and an enticing array of spices — cinnamon, clove and vanilla — creating a sophisticated and deeply layered aromatic profile. The bouquet reflects more than four decades of careful oak maturation, with each element in perfect harmony — a testament to the extraordinary patience and expertise of the Delord family and their prized Sier Armagnac alambics that produce less than 30 litres of eau-de-vie per hour.

Palate

Robust and spicy on the palate, with baked apple and raisin flavours followed by a warming wave of cinnamon, clove and nutmeg. The spirit tingle is warming and almost prickly, with a drying, complex aftertaste of orange zest, vanilla, nutmeg and old leather that lingers beautifully. The hallmark Delord style — very rounded, soft and easy to drink — is evident throughout, with the 1985 vintage delivering extraordinary depth and character.

Pairs With

This exceptional Bas-Armagnac is a natural companion to dark chocolate, toffee pudding, baked apple tart, raisin cake, aged cheeses, or enjoyed as a contemplative digestif after a very special meal, making it the ultimate gift for those born in 1985 and a truly distinguished addition to any serious spirits collection.
