Bas Armagnac 2012 De Pontiac
Mistakenly referred to as armagnac wine, as properly a distillate, although derived from a grape variety just like cognac, it is produced by resting aqua-vitae in oak barrels from Gascony or other strictly French areas, then aged in above-ground storage areas known as chai.
Aged Armagnac follows the same legal denomination as cognac, which subdivides spirits according to the ageing of the spirit, and is subject to increase in value over time according to producer, years of ageing and area of production:
- VS or De Luxe (Very Special)
- VSOP or Réserve (Very Superior or Very Special Old Pale)
- XO (eXtra Old)
Armagnac is an excellent end-of-meal or meditation spirit, to be enjoyed in small ballon glasses, or rather tulip glasses, and on grandibottiglie.com you will find many Armagnac bas from different vintages accompanied by a personalised box!
Personalised wooden box included in the price
Wooden wine boxes are a much more sought-after object than you might think as they make an excellent gift idea to accompany a bottle of vintage wine or bottle of fine wine.
Wooden wine boxes can be customised by laser engraving so that it becomes a real box to enclose and display the wine to be given as a gift, in a dedicated and exclusive manner.
