Armagnac 1996 Clés des Ducs – 40° | Luxury Box | 30 Years Old

Harvested in 1996 in the cellars of the Clés des Ducs house in Panjas, in the heart of the Gers region, this vintage has aged for 30 years in oak barrels. True to the house's philosophy, the wood aging is deliberately limited to 3 or 4 months in new barrels to primarily preserve the brandy's natural fruitiness. Under the guidance of Jérôme Zadro, who succeeded Philippe Lézama after 35 years with the company, the Clés des Ducs specificity remains intact. Presented in its Luxury box.
