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.

After several minutes of aeration, fruits such as quince, prune, and fig come to the fore. The pleasure is immediate on the palate. The attack is round and supple, giving way to delicious flavors marked by sweetness. Apricot, honey, and vanilla intermingle with a lovely, perfectly integrated woodiness. The finish is long and warm, leaving an impression of sweetness, lightness, and elegance, confirming a beautiful balance between aromatic maturity and structural finesse.
