2001 Armagnac: a vintage steeped in history
2001 — the physical euro is just months away from being introduced, the world is shaken on September 11, and in Gascony, a hot, dry summer yields grapes with wonderful ripeness. 2001 vintage Armagnacs, after 25 years of aging in oak barrels, have developed a bold personality: candied prunes, vanilla, warm spices, with a fine tannic structure. A vintage with character, ideal for a 25th birthday.
