Monluc Armagnac 50 years Or
- Ageing age statement 50 years, cuvée Or
- Terroir Ténarèze
Fifty years on the age statement, a cuvée named Or: this bottle seems made for golden wedding anniversaries, or to salute half a century of friendship, work or life together.

This 50 years Or, in the Armagnac-Ténarèze appellation, is 43 % vol. and comes in a 70 cl bottle, in its wooden case. A gift to keep in the cellar and open at the table on great occasions.
