I was wondering What does VSOP means when it is mentioned on a bottle of brandy. I read and a bottle that VS stands for "Very Smooth" is it right. I apparently do not see it as logical, because i find smoothness to be a less important factor related to a drink. I think VSOP or Vs on a bottle means something else.

    In cognac where VSOP is the renowned brand of Remy Martin and it has no lawful significance. There is only the significance of age and quality. However in Armagnac a VSOP will be 10 to 15 years old. In other components of the world the period is utilized as asserted by the manufacturer.
