Veuve Lafontan & ses Enfants

Veuve Lafontan & Ses Enfants is a family-run Armagnac producer nestled in the beautiful corner of southwest of France, in the rolling landscapes between Bordeaux, Pau, and Toulouse. Their approach is all about patience and respect for tradition, letting time and and careful craftsmanship bring out the rich and aromatic natural flavors in their eaux-de-vie. The house prides itself on producing a range of blended Armagnacs and vintage Armagnacs. The range of blends contains bottles ranging from 10 years old all the way up to a staggering 60 years old. And the vintages take it even a step further, spanning from 2014 to 1888.

A Glimpse into History

The cellar at Veuve Lafontan is not all that different from a time capsule, holding vintage Armagnacs dating back to 1888. Each one tells the story of the harvest and distillation year it came from, capturing the character of its time. That’s why the vintages are so special—“Vintages are unique to Armagnac, revealing the memory of the harvest and distillation year. That's why they are so rare and so precious.” With every bottle, you’re tasting a piece of history lovingly preserved by generations of expertise.

We've learned that Armagnac has a tremendous diversity of style, and this range proves to be no exception. There is an Armagnac - young, old, or somewhere in between - for anyone. And the bottles look stunning as well.
