WINE ENTHUSIAST 95 POINTS!
A RARE VINTAGE COGNAC FROM ONE OF THE MOST ESTEEMED PRODUCERS OF THE REGION
"This sip-worthy Armagnac was bottled in 2012, 33 years after distillation. Look for a deep nut-brown hue and maple aroma, with undercurrents of dried herbs and dried cherries. The silky palate opens with vanilla and creme brulee, exiting with dusty cocoa and a hint of cherry that combine into a pleasing dark chocolate-covered cherry effect." - Kara Newman, Wine Enthusiast
