How it is made

Each winter, the stills bring a warming flame that heartens the soul, and beneath rafters darkened by a century of evaporation, the long, patient work of maturation unfolds.

Our House allows its Armagnacs to age well beyond the periods required by law, in pursuit of a rare and singular finesse. For over 180 years, first in the cellars at Pont de Bordes on the banks of the Baïse, then at the Bas-Armagnac estate of château de Maniban, the Castarède family has lovingly tended a unique craft in the service of Armagnac. Their commitment and passion for Armagnac have never wavered, and this water of immortality has kept alive the enthusiasm of their eternal youth.
