{"title":"Born in 1976: Vintage Armagnac and Spirits","description":"\u003cp\u003eA 50th birthday deserves a gift with the year on it, and a bottle distilled in 1976 does exactly that. Vintage Armagnac from 1976 has spent five decades in oak, which is a neat parallel to the occasion and a rare thing to be able to give.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eVintages are single years rather than blends, so a 1976 bottle holds 1976 spirit and nothing else. Casks are finite, and once one is bottled out that year cannot be restocked.

The eaux-de-vie was first aged for 18 months in new oak barrels. These were then toasted slightly to further allow for the aromas to be infused to the liquid within. Finally the eaux-de-vie was moved to ancient barrels to complete the aging process. Each step was overseen by the BNIC. This cognac was well-deservedly awarded the gold medal in the International Wine and Spirits Competition 2016. Well balanced, both on the nose and on the palate. Aromas of lily and orange bark. a very natural cognac.","brand":"Normandin Mercier","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42548574159007,"sku":"NM1976500ml","price":748.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0589\/2322\/1151\/files\/normandin-mercier-cognac-petite-champagne-1976-414-500ml-624525-451972.jpg?v=1712913009"},{"product_id":"darroze-1976-la-poste-45-8-700ml","title":"Darroze 1976 La Poste Armagnac 45.8% 700ml","description":"Nice brown color with gold and orange tints.
