The 1996 from Château de Millet in a 150 cl magnum is the surest way to serve a full table. This eau-de-vie was awarded 92/100 by Gilbert & Gaillard; the estate describes a smoky, spiced nose with an almost exotic touch, followed by a smooth, well-balanced palate of fine intensity. It comes from the Dèche family vineyards, distilled on the property and then aged in cask until bottling at the stated vintage. Sealed in wax, it is bottled at 42% vol. and comes in a wooden gift box.
