About

This VSOP (Very Superior Old Pale) Armagnac is aged for a minimum of four years in oak barrels, imparting depth, complexity, and a rich amber color to the spirit. De Montal is known for its dedication to traditional distillation methods, ensuring a high-quality and authentic Armagnac experience.
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
De Montal Armagnac VSOP reveal a complex bouquet of dried fruits, vanilla, and toasted almonds, complemented by subtle hints of spice and oak. On the palate, it offers a smooth, full-bodied texture with flavors of prunes, caramel, and a touch of cinnamon, leading to a long, warming finish with a hint of nuttiness. This Armagnac is celebrated for its balance, depth, and the harmonious integration of fruit and oak influences.
Pairing
De Montal Armagnac VSOP pairs beautifully with rich desserts such as chocolate mousse, tarte Tatin, or almond cake, where its depth and complexity enhance the flavors. It also complements a cheese platter, especially with aged cheeses like Gouda or Roquefort, providing a luxurious and satisfying tasting experience.
