[QUOTE="TheOLdGuy, post: 102265, member: 878"]Back again, because what I stated before was evidently not very clear. This is the portion I could not find (see) = [U]I picked up today this interesting bottle. I have no idea of the age. It doesnt say on the label where it was produced, [B]only that it was imported for germany and by who. [/B][/U] Your french paragraph above is sort of a generic notice that this cognac is from the region of France authorized to produce "COGNAC." Fontaine cognacs, I think, also alludes to authorization, license, whatever, to call it COGNAC. Vieux Castel, as on the label, is a hotel or B&B in France. Could be a chain. I'll try to be clearer this time. With the spout on the bottle I think, possibly, this was produced for use in bars, etc. rather than for general public. Not the contents, just the bottle. Then a label may have been made for a specific bars, hotels, etc. Could be a long shot, but it would only take a few moments to send a note to the Vieux Castel and ask if above might be correct and, if so, which particular vineyard produced it.
