Monluc Armagnac VS 4 years

  • Ageing VS, age statement 4 years
  • Terroir Ténarèze

The VS 4 years is the gateway to the world of Château de Monluc, in Saint-Puy, in the Gers, where a residence stands on the remains of a 13th-century castle, the family home of Marshal Blaise de Monluc. This Armagnac, of the Armagnac-Ténarèze appellation, comes in a 70 cl bottle at 40% vol.

A bottle to enjoy for its own sake, or to give to anyone who wants to get to know the Ténarèze.
