2012 Armagnac: born in the year of the London Olympics and the end of the Mayan calendar
2012 - the Mayans predicted the end of the world for December 21st, but the world kept turning. The London Olympic Games lit up the summer, François Hollande was elected President of the Republic, Instagram exploded, and smartphones were in every pocket. In Gascony, the vines produced a vintage with beautiful freshness. After 14 years of aging in Gascon oak barrels, the 2012 Armagnacs offer a young and expressive aromatic profile: white flowers, fresh fruit, light vanilla, and the beginnings of roundness. A vintage still in full evolution.
