A house born in 1893

Family history begins with Prosper Delord, a traveling distiller and cellar master who, from farm to farm, transformed wine into brandy. His sons Gaston and Georges continue the adventure by creating the Maison Delord and brothers. With their trading company, they are starting to market their Armagnacs to the United States. In 1963, Jacques, eldest son of Gaston, took over, soon joined by his brother Pierre. The history of siblings does not stop there. In 2001, Jérôme and Sylvain, the sons of Jacques, took over the torch. Like a nod to family history, in 2020, the two brothers bought Galaubas, an area that belonged to Delord. They will in particular develop on this vineyard the Armagnac organic.
