Founded in 1832, Castarède is the oldest Armagnac négociant house. Since 1832, its traditions have endured. Each winter, the stills bring a warming flame that stirs the heart. And beneath the rafters darkened by centuries of evaporation, the slow work of maturation quietly unfolds.
Our House allows its Armagnacs to age well beyond the minimum periods required by law, in pursuit of a rare and exceptional finesse. For more than 180 years, first in the cellars at Pont de Bordes on the banks of the Baïse, then at Château de Maniban, a Bas-Armagnac estate, the Castarède family has lovingly preserved a unique expertise in the service of Armagnac. Their commitment and passion for Armagnac have never wavered, and the water of immortality has kept alive the spirit of their eternal youth.
