The Domaine des Allegrets is a family vineyard, since 4 generations. Our vineyards cover 19 hectares. We also cultivate 9 hectares of plum trees. We produce red, dry white and sweet wines. We cultivate 6 grape varieties: Malbec, Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Sauvignon, and Semillon, the authentic grape variety of the Côtes de Duras appellation.Our soils are composed of clay and limestone for the whites and boulbènes for the reds and mellows... Legend has it that our 115 year old Semillon is grown on soil of the same vein as Petrus... Respect for nature and the environment is part of our DNA. This is why we have been running our estate according to the organic farming charter for 10 years now, and have been in conversion for 2 years. We practice polyculture by cultivating vines, but also plum trees, a vegetable garden, flowers, beehives, many species of trees... A whole ecosystem is present on our property... We have many animals and insects that live in symbiosis: Bees, bumblebees, hedgehogs, deer, chickens, roosters, donkeys, horses, swallows, buzzards, earthworms, ladybugs...The vineyard is treated like a garden and the agreement between man and nature is paramount for us.

Our story

Creativity is the second value that is deeply rooted in our estate. We strive to innovate every year, to create new cuvées, new ways of vinifying in order to always surprise you. The Malbec cuvée without added sulphur is a good example: an exclusivity in the Côtes de Duras, we are pioneers and we are proud of it. It is only the first of a long series that awaits you... . At Domaine des Allégrets, we like to share with you our love of wine, by making vintages that will satisfy the desires and tastes of everyone. Sharing the values and know-how passed on by our grandfather Pierre Carrier, to whom we have dedicated a vintage. Sharing of warm and friendly moments within the domain through personalized and fun visits, tasting/theatre evenings. We work our soils mechanically: no pesticides or herbicides are used for weeding. Against diseases, we use only natural products: copper and sulfur only. Against insect pests, we use natural hormones of sexual confusion. We also re-establish a balance between fauna and flora which allows us to fight invasions in a natural way. We plant green manures to decompact the soil and allow the recolonization of insects on our land. The harvest is done mechanically, except for the Malbecs and Semillons which we pick by hand. We vinify our grapes in several ways: Fermentation and aging in stainless steel tanks for our fruity wines, such as the Malbec without sulfur, the "Grande Règes" or the Sauvignon.

Other little stories

For us, being a winegrower is above all about giving pleasure to the person who drinks the wine. And we want wine to be appreciated for what is in the bottle and not on the bottle. It is therefore a will on our part not to highlight the medals or any other advantage that our wine may have. Our bottle is neutral, but our wine is very original and delicate. To discover it, you will have to open the bottle...
