BARON DE SIGOGNAC ARMAGNAC VINTAGE 1992

Cask Limousin oak
Grape varieties Ugni Blanc or Baco
Terroir tawny sands
Distillation Armagnac-type continuous still

In February 1992, Albertville hosted the Winter Olympics. The Gascon harvest of that same year was distilled at Château de Bordeneuve in an Armagnac-type continuous still, then aged in Limousin oak casks. Thirty-four years later, this Baron de Sigognac, made from Ugni Blanc or Baco grown on tawny sands, is a natural choice after a day's skiing or by the fireside. 70 cl Cognac-style bottle, filled to order, with the bottling date on the back.
