Monluc Armagnac Vintage 1967

  • Ageing vintage 1967, harvest year
  • Terroir Ténarèze

A wedding celebrated in 1967, a birth, a birthday: this bottle keeps the year that matters to the person who receives it. A vintage is the eau-de-vie of a single harvest year, here 1967, and the appellation only allows it from ten years of age. This Armagnac is part of the collection that the house of Château de Monluc, in Saint-Puy, in the Gers, keeps from 1963 to 2016. From the Armagnac-Ténarèze appellation, it is offered in a 70 cl bottle at 43% vol., a gift to keep as much as to share.
