clés des ducs Armagnac 1994
- Ageing Vintage 1994
- Cask Gascon black oak
This Armagnac Millésime 1994 comes from the house of Clés des Ducs, based in Panjas, in the Gers, since 1774. Made from a continuous distillation at low temperature in a copper Armagnac still, it has aged in Gascon black oak casks, with a measured toasting of the wood. Bottled at 40° in a 70 cl bottle, it carries a year chosen for what it represents: that of a birth, or of a wedding whose anniversary is being celebrated. A bottle to give as a gift, or to open on the day you want to mark the moment.
