Vinous

Rather dark in color for a six-year-old, Marie Duffau Napoléon is almost nut brown. Soft, warm orange aromas and sweet, round flavors of milk chocolate, sponge cake, and a spicy, pithy finish. Solid and affordable for such a young Armagnac. (Bas-Armagnac, 40% abv.)

This offers a mix of fresh and dried-fruit aromas and a slightly resiny nose. Its juicy apple cider, vanilla and toasty baking-spice notes suggest this would be a fine choice for mixing- into a mulled brandy punch for winter parties. Hard wax cap.
