In my opinion, and it is really personal, even the oldest of the oldest cognac does not hold a candle to armagnac. It is fiery, yet subtle, it is strong, yet sublime. Of all the wine distillates I know it is perfect. Probably none of the absinthe makers used armagnac as a base-and they should have used, in my opinion.
For VS I have paid like 15 euros. Must check its vintage, though.
