The Bertrand family
Château de villemajou: flagship of the boutenac appellation
Boutenac: A terroir of unique character
A Bertrand family Domaine since 1970, Château de Villemajou is in itself a testament to the transmission of expertise and the continuation of traditions. It is here that Gérard Bertrand, accompanied by his father Georges, learned the art of producing a great wine from a very young age.
Located in an arid climate, the domaine de Villemajou is fortunate to have a rich and atypical soil that allows the vines to root deeply — an ideal condition for thriving in a sometimes harsh Mediterranean climate (summer drought, storms, winds, etc.).
The vineyard, which has seen several generations of winegrowers, is home to a treasure: century-old Carignan vines, the emblematic grape variety of the Languedoc.
In red or white, each vintage of Château de Villemajou delivers a unique density and velvety quality, brilliantly expressing the full power and elegance of its terroir.
Château de Villemajou Grand Vin Rouge
Timeless, the Domaine de Villemajou red is a wine unlike any other. The very old Carignan vines, blended with Grenache and Mourvèdre, give this wine a unique character. With a complex nose, a blend of fruit, spices and leather, the palate is full and round, with velvety tannins. This generous and elegant wine has excellent ageing potential.
Château de Villemajou Grand Vin Blanc
From the estate's finest vines, the Grand Vin Blanc Château de Villemajou is assembled from white and grey Grenache, Roussanne, Marsanne and Vermentino vines, then aged in oak barrels for 8 months. Certified AB (organic) and Demeter (biodynamic), its brilliant golden colour reveals a deep and expressive nose. The palate is velvety and brioche-like, with a beautiful freshness on the finish.
