This family-owned estate is situated on the sun-kissed southeastern slopes of the Pinada Massif, the foundation of the Boutenac terroir. The unique blend of Mediterranean red soils, maritime influences, and refreshing northern winds creates a stunning landscape that enhances the quality of the wines produced here.

A Winery Steeped in History

Over the years, various families have contributed to the winery's rich history and terroir. In 1978, Jacqueline and François Bories took the reins, and by 1998, their children joined the family business with a shared goal of crafting authentic, natural wines. The spiritual essence of the winery is palpable, as you stroll through the lush vineyards where diverse grape varieties thrive, including Carignan, Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre, Roussanne, and Marsanne.

A restaurant located in the exceptional location of the Corbières massif, in the heart of a wine estate. Excellent value for money for tasty and generous cuisine made with local products. Many thanks to Arnaud and Yann for their welcome and their professionalism. I must point out that I had already started tasting my duck breast before taking the photo!

Relaxing atmosphere in the middle of the vineyards. Very pleasant lunch service. We enjoyed the menu offered at the restaurant. We will return to eat at the restaurant among the vineyards at the top of the estate to enjoy the view!
