Gascon

Armagnac, that underappreciated and fiery Gascon brandy, has a long history.

Their jurisdictions overlapped and the Gascon would play second fiddle to no one save to his great brother-in-law.

He was Gascon to the backbone, and his tongue too often betrayed his most secret and his most transient thoughts.

But while everything seemed so favourable the crafty Gascon from the first foresaw the dangers which beset his path.

But the outbreak of the Revolution opened a wider field to the audacious young Gascon.

Their eyes fixed, their mouths agape, their hands clasped, they listened with increasing avidity to the Gascon adventurer.
