Know a bit more about the domain

Since 1980, Alain Brumont, visionary winemaker, has meticulously selected the best terroirs in the commune of Maumusson-Laguian, in the Madiran appellation. It is on these exceptional lands, located on the sides of steep hillsides and nestled on a limestone cliff, that Brumont decided to cultivate his vines. These soils, rich in clay and typical of the South-West of France, give the wines great singularity and remarkable depth.
