Domaine Berta Maillol

They cultivate a vineyard of around 15 hectares on the slope known as "la Côte Vermeille," taming a rocky schist terroir where the vines are planted on terraces due to the steep gradient. The landscape of this unusual region oscillates between sea and mountains (Pyrenees), with steep vineyards overlooking the sea. 

 

The Berta Maillol estate produces a range of traditional red Banyuls wines, as well as amber, rancio, rosé, and a dry white wine under the Collioure appellation. Inthe Banyuls appellation, Grenache is king, being the only grape variety used in Banyuls red wines. The Berta Maillol family also works with other grape varieties endemic to the region, such as Grenache Blanc, Grenache Gris, and Macabeu.
