Delord Bas Armagnac 2002 is a distinguished and approachable Bas-Armagnac of genuine character — produced at the Delord family distillery in Lannepax using Colombard, Ugni Blanc, and Folle Blanche, and aged in one of more than 700 oak barrels in Delord’s celebrated cellars. Clear amber with beautiful gold reflections; a nose of vanilla, oakwood, marzipan, and dried fruits; rich, smooth, and beautifully balanced on the palate — rounded, soft, and remarkably easy to drink, with a long, warming finish of genuine Bas-Armagnac distinction. The perfect 2002 birth year gift and a treasured addition to any serious spirits collection.
Tasting Notes
Appearance
Clear amber with beautiful gold reflections and refined clarity — the hallmark of patient ageing in oak barrels at the Delord family distillery in Lannepax, one of Armagnac’s most celebrated and approachable producers.
Aroma
Inviting and complex — vanilla, oakwood, marzipan, and dried fruits create a sophisticated and layered aromatic profile. The bouquet reflects over two decades of careful ageing in Delord’s treasured oak barrels, with each element in genuine harmony — a testament to the expertise and patience of the Delord family and their prized Sier Armagnac alambics.
Palate
Rich, smooth, and beautifully balanced — hints of cinnamon, marzipan, and toasted bread weave together with genuine elegance. Rounded, soft, and remarkably easy to drink, the 2002 vintage showcases the hallmark Delord style — approachable, refined, and finishing with a long, warming Bas-Armagnac character of genuine depth.
Pairs With
A natural companion to dark chocolate, crème brûlée, aged blue cheese, dried figs, and walnut tart — or enjoyed as a contemplative digestif after a special meal. The perfect gift for those born in 2002, and a treasured addition to any serious spirits collection.
