Bas-Armagnac 1961 – Veuve Lafontan & ses Enfants

This old 1961 vintage Armagnac from Veuve Lafontan & ses Enfants, sourced from the best terroirs of Gascony, has aged in old oak barrels. This old 1961 vintage Armagnac is offered in a Cognac-style bottle and its wooden "Arche" box.

The first merchant-breeder was Léonce LAFONTAN (1865-1939). Originally a horse merchant, in addition to being a winegrower, he became a Merchant-Breeder in 1897 by founding the Maison LAFONTAN. His primary activity, and his knowledge of the region, allowed him to make meticulous choices for the purchase of old Armagnacs from the best crus. Thus, Maison LAFONTAN was one of the pioneers in selling Armagnac in bottles. It was in 1904 that he created the "VEUVE LAFONTAN & ses Enfants" range in homage to his late mother.

Stored in old oak barrels, this Bas-Armagnac 1961 has been subjected to the work of time to acquire the nobility of the greatest nectars. It is during a long aging process that it has acquired the fullness of its aromas.
