About The Producer

Situated in Bas-Armagnac, vineyards are made up of Colombard, Ugni Blanc and Folle Blanche grape varieties. The distillery is to be found in the village of Lannepax, the ancestral home of the Delord family. The distillation, the most essential and fascinating stage in the production of Armagnac, takes place at the beginning of November through to the end of December. Their old Sier Armagnac alambics, that they wouldn't part with for all the gold in the world, produce less than 30 litres of eau-de-vie an hour. Delord cellars contain old treasured vintages and include more than 700 oak barrels that protect and age the Armagnac eau-de-vie dating from the 20th Century to the present day. Delord thanks to their vision have stored such quantities of good Armagnacs for such a long time that they have the resource to be very competitive in price for the same quality. They also concentrate on Armagnac styles, very rounded, soft and easy to drink, that they are amongst the most successful producers.

Payment methods

A very nice after-dinner drink.

The 1996 Armagnac goes really well with dessert. It has a very pleasant fresh bouquet and a nice nutty, medium long aftertaste. For anyone who has never tried Armagnac before, this would be a great place to start.

Love this Armagnac

I was given a bottle of this as a gift and over time, reluctantly fnished it. I bought another brand of Armagnac to follow but while good, it lacked the finesse of the Delord. So now, through Spirits if France I have another 1996. I am no expert but I love brandies and I particularly appreciate the smoothness and complexity of Armagnac. The Delord has a beautiful nuttiness with vanilla and apricot notes with a darker chocolate hint in the background. The colour is a beautiful topaz/ amber and it looks beautiful in a good glass. While a generous person by temperament, I turn into a despicable miser when deciding who will share this. Highly recommended.
