Domaine de Perreau

Located in Saint-Michel-de-Montaigne, on the hillsides overlooking the Dordogne Valley, the Domaine de Perreau is now run by Gaëlle Reynou-Gravier, who took over the family estate in 2013. She represents a new generation at the helm of an estate that has been passed down through several generations.

The vineyard covers approximately 20 hectares, spread across south-facing slopes that promote gradual ripening of the grapes. The estate is committed to sustainable viticulture, holding Terra Vitis certification, which aims to balance respect for the soil and the vines with consistent quality. Cultivation practices seek to preserve the vineyard’s balance while highlighting local characteristics.

Domaine de Perreau produces several wines from the Southwest, including Bergerac, Côtes de Montravel, and Montravel, as well as a wine with the Périgord IGP designation. The wines are crafted with the aim of faithfully reflecting the terroirs of this transitional zone between Bordeaux and Périgord, emphasizing aromatic precision and structural balance.

Since 2018, the estate has also developed a wine tourism program focused on raising awareness of biodiversity, featuring an educational trail through the heart of the vineyards. This initiative is part of a broader effort to strengthen ties to the local community and educate visitors about contemporary issues in the wine industry.

The entire range of wines from Domaine de Perreau offers a cohesive and contemporary interpretation of the Montravel and Bergerac terroirs, grounded in sustainable viticulture, a meticulous winemaking process, and a thoughtful approach to preserving the environment.
