One of the great difficulties with good armagnac is that when it gets old it also gets scarce. There is very little of any old vintages left now and this is no exception.
Did you know? In 1949 the Berlin Blockade officially ended and The North Atlantic Treaty Organisation (NATO) was established. The Geneva Convention was agreed and Mao Tse Tung proclaimed the Communist People’s Republic of China.
