Our wine estate (30 ha) is situated in the Roussillon county (south of France), which profits from the greatest period of shinning sun in the year.
Our property located in Tautavel, a small village in the mountain side where the cranium of the oldest prehistoric man in Europe was discovered.

We take advantage of a particularly rich soil, primarily made up of argilo-limestones ground, the majority of the vines are on the slopes.





Our field is of average size and we work hard to preserve the authenticity of our wines, in a traditional way and methods that respect the environment: our production is entirely gathered with the hand, we plow the majority of the pieces instead of weeding and we practice traditional methods of wine making. We are applying the protocol of reasoned viticulture (biodynamic).

The cellar has still the lightning of centenary oak. It was primary equipped only with this type of fermenting room, built on the spot at the beginning of the century, with oak from Russia. Currently, a more powerful material is used (stainless fermenting room, destemming machine, regulated cooling system…).





We are farming essentially 4 type of vines: the Carignan which is a Catalan traditional type, the Syrah, the Grenache, and the famous Muscatel, which enables us to produce the Muscat of Rivesaltes and the dry Muscat.

We also planted more recently Chardonnay, which enables us to produce the amber Muscat and the dry white one. And finally, we also cultivate Cabernet for special vintages and Macabeu to obtain sweet aperitif amber wines.
