Armagnac Delord Vintage, 1997 Harvest, 40% vol., 0.7 l, in a wooden box online kaufen

The Vieil Armagnac Delord Vintage Récolte 1997 is a traditional vintage Armagnac from France, whose origins date back to the 1997 harvest and distillation. It is produced by the family-run Delord business in Gascony, whose history dates back to 1893, when Prosper Delord began working as an itinerant distiller. Over several generations, the family has continued to develop its expertise in viticulture, distillation and the long-term ageing of eaux-de-vie. The extensive stocks of old vintages are one of the house’s distinctive features. The Vintage Récolte 1997 embodies the traditional concept of an Armagnac Millésimé, where a specific vintage is at the heart of the bottling.

During its long ageing period, the Armagnac Delord Vintage 1997 was able to develop in the cask over many years, acquiring a distinctly mature character. Contact with the oak wood contributes significantly to the increasing complexity and roundness of the originally distilled eau-de-vie. This Vieil Armagnac is bottled at 40% ABV in a 0.7-litre bottle. The high-quality wooden box further emphasises the special gift and collector’s appeal of this vintage bottling. As it is clearly labelled as the 1997 vintage, this Armagnac is also ideal as a personalised vintage gift for birthdays, anniversaries or other occasions linked to that year.

The Vieil Armagnac Delord Vintage Récolte 1997 is at its best when enjoyed neat at around 18–20 °C and is ideal as a digestif following a special meal. It pairs well with dark chocolate, walnuts, figs, prunes or mature hard cheese. Desserts featuring caramelised nuts, plums or vanilla also harmonise beautifully with the mature character of a vintage Armagnac. Thanks to the 1997 vintage and its presentation in a wooden box, this bottling is also particularly well-suited as a high-quality gift for a milestone birthday or a personal anniversary.
