Château de Laubade

The Lesgourgues family, now Arnaud, Denis and Jeanne, has owned Château de Laubade since 1974. Before them, illustrious men contributed to the reputation of this property, built in 1870. Always at the forefront in terms of agronomy and the elaboration of eaux-de-vie, it is today the first house of Armagnac. Nowadays, it is made up of 105 hectares ... of vines in a single block, located in the most famous cru of the region, the Bas Armagnac.

The vineyard is managed using integrated viticulture, with a large emphasis on organic soil improvement and the implementation of an agroforestry policy, allowing the estate to have a balanced or even negative carbon footprint.

The style of the house aims to make available unique eaux-de-vies, of very high quality and renowned for their balance.

Since 1998, Arnaud and Denis Lesgourgues, representing the 3rd generation, have continued their quest for excellence, making Château de Laubade the undisputed reference in Armagnac.

Château de Laubade was in 2014 among the first 3 Armagnac houses to receive the prestigious Entreprise du Patrimoine Vivant label. The Living Heritage Company (EPV in French) label is a state recognition mark set up to distinguish French companies with excellent craft and industrial know-how.
