Darroze, one of Brett’s favorite producers, works only with small grape growers (roughly 20) with whom they have long-time and even generational relationships.

That ensures the high quality of the fruit they use for distillation.

In the words of the Darroze family, “no sugars, tannins or caramels to speed up the aging process” of their Armagnac. And the “emphasis is on local grape varieties, traditional continuous distillation… and [varieties of] local oak” trees for their casks.

These are just some of the elements that make Armagnac such a unique distillate.

Be sure to check out the Darroze website, which is chock full of great information, including a wonderful piece on the differences between Cognac and Armagnac.
