- Description
- Prunier's Vieux Cognac, bottled in the early 1970s shortly after the house acquired its historic, protected building in Cognac, represents mid-twentieth-century French brandy tradition. The label itself—depicting the iconic 'Old House'—connects the spirit to the distillery's heritage and newly secured home. Age in glass and the era of bottling have shaped the spirit's current character significantly. A collectible bottle for Cognac historians and those drawn to the romantic heritage of traditional French brandy houses.
