The Dartigalongue house offers us a wide choice of vintages and has the oldest of the Armagnac appellation, the 1848 vintage.
For more than 180 years, the Dartigalongue house has been mailing its vintages after a farm of at least 15 years in oak barrels. After more than 40 to 50 years of aging, vintages are stored in container in glass in glass cylinders in order to preserve the taste qualities and stop the decrease in the degree of alcohol.
We find through this 1986 vintage all the ancestral know-how and the unique style of the Dartigalongue house.

Nose: The atypical nose of this vintage is revealed on notes of toasted oak, vanilla and dried fruit.
Mouth: The attack is rather delicate and creamy. The aromatic bouquet that emerges is floral dominance.
Finish: The end of the mouth of this 1986 vintage is well balanced with sweet almond notes.

The Bas-Armagnac, whose capital is Eauze, is west of the appellation. It runs on the Landes and the western part of the Gers. It represents 67% of the areas identified in Armagnac. In this part of the terroir, the floors are sablo simedy, called "sandblasters". Bas-Armagnac brandies are delicate and very fruity.

Discover the house

At the Maison Dartigalongue, white brandies are carefully selected from three grape varieties: the white UGNI for the fruit, the Baco for the structure and the white madness for its finesse. These brandies come from Bas-Armagnac to silt and sandy soils. After continuous distillation at Bas-degree, begins farming in Gascon oak barrel. Aging is successively carried out in dry cellars to calm the passion of youth and then in humid cellars that will give round and finesse to the Armagnacs. After 40 or 50 years, the cellar master decides to house the brandy in glass cylinders where they hardly evolve.
