Information

Description
The Domaine de Vénus was born in the winter of 2002/2003, on the heights of the L'Agly Valley, in Saint-Paul de Fenouillet, between the Gorges de Galamus and the Château de Quéribus, where our wine-making and ageing cellar is located.

In 20 years, the Domaine, founded by Jean-Luc COUPET and Jean-François NEGRE, “Terroiristes” passionate about elegant and fresh wines, has acquired more than fifty selected plots on the black shale hills. This set of vines is now composed of different exposures, different varieties and ages, all complementary, and representative of the high altitude terroir of the Agly Valley.

Each parcel acquired is regularly converted into organic wine (total certification obtained at the end of 2018) under the management of Laurent ABET and vinified separately, in concrete or tanks or stainless steel vats, or in 500-liters Burgundian barrels of one or two wines, the winery being managed by his wife Nathalie ABET.

The Domaine de Vénus does not produce large volumes, because yields are unfortunately between 15 and 25hl/ ha, between age of the vines, organic management, altitude, drought and wind. But our wines are the sincere expression of our terroir and present a great freshness, which we sought above all.

The wine range is aimed at a clientele of gastronomy, bistronomies and wine lovers, all being ready to drink wines. This is how the Domaine de Vénus markets ready-to-drink wines, from 2015 to 2023, according to the varieties and colors of the cuvées produced. The Domaine de Vénus also produces Natural Sweet Wines in AOP Maury, white and red.
