Monluc Armagnac Vintage 1987

  • Ageing 1987 vintage, harvest year
  • Terroir Ténarèze

This 1987 vintage joins the collection that the Monluc house keeps from 1963 to 2016. A vintage is the eau-de-vie of a single harvest year, here 1987, and the appellation allows it only from ten years of age. A fitting way to mark a birth, a wedding or an anniversary from 1987, or simply to rediscover the year of a loved one. This Armagnac-Ténarèze comes from Saint-Puy, in the Gers, where the Lassus family, owners of the château, has been developing Armagnac since the 1920s. It is offered in a 70 cl bottle, at 43% vol.
