Francis Darroze 21 years Of. Pièce n°58 - One of 420 Les Pièces Oubliées

The wine

A Darroze Armagnac 21 Year Old bottled for the Les Pièces Oubliées range. Armagnacs are aged in 420-litre casks known as “pièces”. This pièce, no. 58, was “forgotten”, most likely in a humid cellar, which would explain its low strength. A limited edition of 420 bottles.

About the Producer Darroze

Who hasn't heard of the chef Jean Darroze? An emblematic figure of Landes gastronomy, this south-western chef has passed on his passion for cooking, fine wine, and local spirits to his son Francis Darroze. The latter quickly developed a sophisticated palate and, from the 1950s, began searching for lesser well-known Armagnacs. This project went so well that, in the 1970s, he had a cellar dedicated to ageing built. Next in line was his son, Marc, who continued this tradition of seeking liquid gold – made form Ugni Blanc – which we are delighted to offer on iDealwine.
