MILLET ARMAGNAC VINTAGE 1990 MAGNUM 150 Cl

Ageing Vintage 1990, single-harvest eau-de-vie, aged in oak casks at the estate
Cask French oak casks, aged in the cellars of Château de Millet until bottling
Grape varieties Baco and Ugni Blanc, Bas-Armagnac grape varieties grown on the sandy soils of the estate, in Eauze

The 1990 from the Dèche family has freshness on its side: a nose of plum and fig, fine tannins and a clean finish. In a 150 cl magnum, it finds its place at a grand table, rounding off a birthday dinner or a reunion meal.
