The history of Armagnac Delord began in 1893, when Prosper Delord, an itinerant distiller, transformed white wine into Armagnac as he toured the region's farms.
In 1932, his sons Gaston and Georges founded Maison Armagnac Delord Frères in Lannepax, and gradually developed exports to the United States. Gaston's son Jacques took over in 1963, joined ten years later by his brother Pierre. In 2001, the fourth generation, represented by Sylvain and Jérôme, ensured continuity: one devoted himself to making Armagnacs, the other to promoting them.
In 2020, they bought the family-owned Domaine de Galaubas, a 75-hectare terroir, including 6 hectares of organic farming.
The vineyard, located in Lannepax, is planted with the four traditional Armagnac grape varieties: Ugni-blanc, CoLombard, Folle-blanche and Baco. The grapes are harvested and vinified on site, under the supervision of Sylvain Delord, to guarantee aromatic wines suitable for distillation.

Since its founding in 1893, the Delord house, created by Prosper Delord, has embodied the excellence and authenticity of Armagnac. The 1966 vintage, born of this unique heritage, is the result of long and meticulous aging in oak barrels, offering a tasting experience that combines complexity and finesse.
With a magnificent amber color and orange highlights, the 1966 vintage offers an intense and warm nose. It presents aromas of stewed fruit, white flowers, and vanilla. There are also hints of sweet spices, roasted hazelnuts, and rancio. On the palate, the attack is both frank and velvety. The fruit flavors are intense and accompanied by sweet flavors such as caramel and cardamom. The finish is long-lasting, sweet and slightly spicy, inviting you to take another sip.
This Delord 1966 is an exceptional Armagnac, embodying all the passion and expertise of a house that has preserved the authenticity of its terroirs and traditions, much to the delight of spirits lovers.
