1995 Armagnac: born in the year of Toy Story, Wonderwall, and Mandela in a Springbok jersey

1995 - four events that left their mark on the world. In November, Pixar's Toy Story hit theaters: the first feature film created entirely with computer-generated imagery, an absolute revolution in animation that forever redefined the possibilities of cinema. On the airwaves, Oasis's Wonderwall became the anthem of a Britpop generation - a timeless hit still played in bars and at concerts thirty years later. In June, the Rugby World Cup took place in South Africa: the Springboks won the title, and Nelson Mandela stepped onto the podium wearing captain Francois Pienaar's jersey and cap - the most powerful and beautiful political gesture in the history of world sport, a living symbol of national reconciliation. That same year, Microsoft launched Windows 95 in August and integrated Internet Explorer: millions of Westerners connected to the World Wide Web for the first time, a decisive shift into the digital age. In Gascony, the vines produced a sunny and generous vintage. After 31 years of aging in Gascon oak barrels, 1995 Armagnacs offer a fruity and accessible aromatic profile: ripe fruits, vanilla, sweet spices, and emerging rancio. A vintage full of sunshine and character.
