Dartigalongue was established in 1838 and is run today by the fifth generation of the family. It stands as the oldest and most respected house in Bas-Armagnac. Their Brandies are distilled exclusively from grapes produced in this area. As with Grande Champagne in Cognac, Bas- Armagnac produces the finest Armagnac.
The spirits are aged to perfection in oak casks and are only bottled or blended just prior to shipping.
The Dartigalongue 15 ans is a blend of the 1963 vintage, refreshed by the addition of the 1972-1975 vintages, resulting in an Armagnac of perfect balance at an attractive price.
