AI for you!!
The Sempé Extra Vieil Armagnac 5 Star appears to be a discontinued or vintage product, likely available through specialist or auction sites as a collector’s item rather than a standard retail item. The 68cl bottle size and 70% vol strength also indicate it is an older or specific bottling, as modern spirits are typically 70cl and 40% ABV.
Product Description
The product is a Vieil Armagnac from the Sempé house, known for its expertise in blending and aging Armagnacs, primarily from the Bas-Armagnac region.
  • Producer: Maison Sempé, founded by Abel Sempé in 1934, is a well-known Armagnac trading house.
  • Appellation: Likely Bas-Armagnac, the region known for producing delicate and very fruity brandies, which are highly regarded.
  • Aging: The term “Vieil” (old) indicates significant aging in oak barrels, contributing to complex reactions and the development of rich, nuanced flavours of fruits, spices, and oak.
  • Characteristics: Sempé Armagnacs are generally renowned for their smoothness, balance, and the inclusion of a small amount of the Folle Blanche grape variety in their blends, which adds complexity
