Léopold Carrère - Bas Armagnac - Vieille Réserve - 1970

The Bas Armagnac area, SE of Bordeaux, has fertile topsoil which produces light, dry wines with good acidity. These make the best spirits

when distilled. This is a fine example and at a great price for a labelled vintage. The Carrère family are well renowned artisanal producers.

Has a medium body, with notes of figs, prunes and violets on the nose and palate.
