1977 Armagnac: Born the year of Star Wars
1977 — Star Wars is released in cinemas worldwide, punk rock sweeps across Europe, disco is in full swing, and Giscard’s France navigates the oil crisis with a certain elegance. In Gascony, the vines produce a vintage of great maturity, discreet and elegant. After 49 years of aging in Gascon oak barrels, the 1977 Armagnacs have developed a refined aromatic profile: blond tobacco, beeswax, candied fruits, sweet vanilla, and emerging rancio. A vintage nearing its fiftieth year, at its peak.
