DRINKS: Armagnac Sempe from 1960
I decided to open a new category DRINKS because I really have a very bad memory concerning the names, the good years and so on ;-)
For some days, I have already written one "drinks' post" about a great grappa I received.
On last Friday evening, I had a good dinner at the Violettes, where I had the chance to enjoy a 1961 vintage Armagnac from Sempe. 44 years old, respect! One of the best Armagnac I ever tasted, a real happiness :-)
Drink moderately and safely. Enjoy your alcohol.

About 1961 vintage
1961: Very dry but with a sweetish, slightly floral nose; fruitcake, carrot cake, dry spices, leather, potpourri. Still some life ahead. Very good+.
