Our story

At the beginning of the 80s, Alain Brumont took over the direction of the domain in which he had taken his first steps. Château Bouscassé is his first work of art: his childhood inspirations led him to acquire numerous plots of land, growing from 17 hectares in 1980 to more than 120 hectares today. The 6 clay-limestone terroirs that make up the vineyard became the winegrower's playground and made his reputation. When he took over the family estate, the winegrower bought Château Montus, which was then completely in ruins. Stone by stone, Alain and his team are rebuilding the estate and its buildings. On the terroir of this property, he sees the potential to work on wines with great ageing potential. It is with this project that he aims to restore Tannat's letters of nobility. Emblem of innovation in the South-West region, Alain is the first to practice late harvesting and produces his first cuvées in softness. At the beginning of the 2000s, he created the "Coffre-fort du Tannat", the first logistics and storage platform that will enable him to store more than 4 million bottles while waiting for their peak. At Brumont, we don't skimp on means when it comes to keeping wine.
