The winery
Domaine de Montahuc
Estate in Saint-Jean-de-Minervois (Hérault), at the top of Montahuc, at 640 metres, on thin, very stony limestone soils. Michel Poudou and his Spanish partners Julián López Olaso and María José Peidró Montaner bought it in 2005: a farmhouse and 7 hectares of vines, farmed organically since 1990. Known at first for its Muscat de Saint-Jean-de-Minervois, it now also makes dry wines. Since 2022, Chozas Carrascal has been its sole owner.
