Producer

DeMontal have probably the most modern distillery in the region and their methods of both viticulture and viniculture are hugely sophisticated. DeMontal makes great armagnac but also many wines from their 700 hectare estate. The advantages are that their quality is always exceptionally high and individuality between vintages is much harder to identify. The distillery is state of the art and it is claimed that the grapes spend less than 10 minutes between vineyard and press to minimize SO2 content. The pressings are in stainless steel pneumatic drums and the distillation is on very light lees. The method of vinification is altogether natural, the addition of anything artificial being forbidden. The wine is distilled right after harvest time so as to preserve a maximum amount of aromas. Stability of DeMontal quality is quite unique!

Tasting notes

Aromas of mature plum, fine tobacco, aged oak, dried fruits, vanilla, and warming spice. The palate is deep and velvety, offering a layered, warming complexity. The finish is incredibly long and elegant – a meditative and memorable experience.

Pairing

Best enjoyed neat at room temperature. Pairs beautifully with dark chocolate, aged cheeses, or a fine cigar. An exceptional digestif and a perfect spirit for special celebrations.
