Loads of translations for you but it means that the stuff in the bottle has been aged for longer and will have a richer, deeper taste, hence the higher cost.
There are several different types of brandy all of which are categorised dependent on age and characteristics. These are guidelines which are defined as standards by the European Union.

It stands for Very Special Old Porter, due to the way it is matured in oak barrels that have already been used to mature heavy Port Wines hence the special flavour, which is a lot sweeter than any other ( very nice By the way )

Its Very Superior Old Pale. I use to work on a cruise ship in the passenger dining rooms. The wealthy passengers always used to buy these wines. They are quite pricey!

Jahnisha is correct. Very Superior Old Pale. It is a grade of cognac.
I looked it up in Wikipedia in order to settle the controversy.
