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.
Maison Delord is one of the Rares to practice both distillation methods: continuous distillation, ideal for older Armagnacs, and double toasting, which produces fruitier eaux-de-vie for younger Armagnacs. The ageing process takes place in their cellars, where over 1,400 oak barrels house eaux-de-vie dating back to the early 20th century. The oldest vintages are kept in casks in a room called Le Paradis, where they are protected from the light.
This heritage, combined with rigorous craftsmanship, gives Delord Armagnacs a singular identity and unrivalled refinement.
Maison Delord, established in the heart of Bas-Armagnac since 1893, is renowned for its ability to express the Gascon terroir with sincerity and transparency. True to its family tradition, it produces eaux-de-vie that respect the slow and rigorous artisanal process. L’Authentique Brut de Fût is the quintessence of this approach. A blend of rare vintages, it is the result of a meticulous selection of emblematic barrels representing Maison Delord's most typical vintages.
In the glass, the color is a deep, luminous amber with coppery highlights. The nose is lively and expressive, initially marked by dried and candied fruits: plum, dried apricot, fig, with hints of orange peel. This is followed by spicy and woody notes: vanilla, cinnamon, and a subtle touch of toasted oak. When aerated, nuances of caramel, honey, and candied fruit are revealed, unveiling the complexity and authenticity of this brut de fût. On the palate, the attack is full and generous, with a dense and silky texture. Fruit and wood blend harmoniously, supported by a noble and controlled warmth. The spices and caramel notes linger, offering an immediate and persistent aromatic richness. The long and warm finish is marked by the return of candied fruit. Each sip leaves an impression of power, true to the Brut de Fût style.
