Bas-Armagnac (40% ABV)\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExperience the classic finesse of Gascony with Dartigalongue X.O. Bas-Armagnac. As the oldest continuous Armagnac house, Dartigalongue upholds a tradition dating back to 1838. This X.O. (Extra Old) expression significantly exceeds the minimum age requirement, blending eaux-de-vie aged a minimum of 10 years in French oak barrels, predominantly local Gascogne oak.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSourced from the coveted Bas-Armagnac region, often called the \"Grand Cru\" of the appellation due to its sandy, acidic soils, this spirit showcases the house's signature style: round, elegant, and fruit-driven with a dry finish. The long maturation in oak has imparted a beautiful, complex character, making it a spectacular sipper and an excellent value in premium French brandy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColor: Warm, radiant honey-gold to deep amber.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAroma: Richly scented with baked apples, almond paste, and vanilla custard. Initial sweetness of toffee and caramel gives way to complex notes of dried stone fruits (apricot, fig, prune), baking spices (clove, nutmeg), and a subtle, attractive hint of fine tobacco or cedar.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePalate: Full and generous, yet elegant. The entry is velvety smooth, delivering concentrated flavors of creamy caramel, sweet baking spices, and buttered croissant.

The flavor profile is complex, warm, and inviting.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinish: Long, silky, and refined. It finishes notably dry, leaving lingering notes of dark chocolate, licorice, and a pleasant warmth with a final, elegant dusting of spice.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuggested Serve: Enjoy neat in a snifter or tulip glass to fully appreciate its depth and complexity.
