Monluc Armagnac Vintage 1986

  • Ageing 1986 vintage, harvest year
  • Terroir Ténarèze

A vintage is the eau-de-vie of a single harvest year, here 1986, and the appellation only permits it from ten years of age.

It makes a fitting gift for a birth, a wedding or a birthday from 1986, or to honour a generation. Offered at 43% vol. in a 70 cl bottle, it comes in a wooden case, a sober presentation that needs no additional wrapping.
