This review is from: Armagnac: The Definitive Guide to France's Premier Brandy (Hardcover)
I liked the info on blending and ages, but it was not presented in a "modern" manner - rather old fashioned "notes". However, it did enable me to find a more interesting armagnac. so it was worth the money....
