Castarède Armagnac Vintage 1924
- Ageing 94 years in cask, bottled in 2018
- Cask Oak
1924 is the year of the first Winter Olympic Games, held in Chamonix. The Gascon harvest of that year was aged by Castarède for ninety-four years in oak casks before being bottled in 2018. In 2026, one hundred and two years separate it from the vintage. Castarède, a family house founded in 1832, ages its old vintages at Château de Maniban in Mauléon-d'Armagnac. The vintage is bottled at 40% vol. in a 70 cl bottle presented in a gift box. A fine choice for a centenary, a retirement of distinction, or a collection of old vintages.
