The Bertrand family
Château de villemajou: flagship of the boutenac appellation
Boutenac: a terroir of unique character
A Bertrand family estate since 1970, the Château de Villemajou embodies the transmission of expertise and the continuation of traditions. It is here that Gérard Bertrand, accompanied by his father Georges, learned from an early age the art of producing a Grand Vin.
Located in an arid climate, the domaine de Villemajou is fortunate to possess a rich and atypical soil that allows the vines to root deeply — the ideal condition for thriving in a sometimes harsh Mediterranean climate (summer drought, storms, winds, etc.).
The vineyard, which has seen several generations of wine growers pass through, is home to a treasure: century-old Carignan vines, the emblematic grape variety of the Languedoc.
In red or white, every vintage of the Château de Villemajou delivers a unique density and velvety texture, brilliantly expressing the full power and elegance of its terroir.
Château de Villemajou Grand Vin Rouge
Timeless, the domaine de Villemajou rouge is a wine like no other. The very old Carignan vines, blended with Grenache and Mourvèdre, give this wine a unique character. With a complex nose of fruit, spices and leather, the palate is full and rounded, with velvety tannins. This generous and elegant wine has excellent ageing potential.
Château de Villemajou Grand Vin Blanc
Sourced from the finest vines on the estate, the Grand Vin Blanc Château de Villemajou is assembled from Grenache blanc and gris, Roussanne, Marsanne and Vermentino vines, then aged in oak barrels for 8 months. Certified AB (organic) and Demeter (biodynamic), its brilliant golden robe reveals a deep and expressive nose. The palate is velvety and brioche-like, with a very fine freshness on the finish.
