Monluc Armagnac Vintage 2003

Ageing 2003 vintage, harvest year
Terroir Ténarèze

A vintage is the eau-de-vie of a single harvest year: here, 2003. It suits dates that matter, a birth, a wedding or an anniversary of 2003, or simply the pleasure of giving the year of someone close.

Offered in 70 cl at 43% vol., it is kept for a great occasion or shared as a digestif.
