Situated in the western half of the Minervois, 15km North of Carcassonne on the land of the "Côtes Noires". The Villatade spreads out through 120 hectares, made-up of fir trees, heath land and 22 hectares of vineyards.

Surrounded by hills and protected by the Black Mountain to the North. The estate has a descending view of the Plain of the Minervois and the rugged outline of the Pyrenees.

The history of the estate is uncertain. It goes back to Roman times where it gets its name. Later it became perhaps a monastery surrounded by its vineyards

The present owners Denis and Sophie Morin were charmed by the natural beauty of the area, as they were by the vineyards growing on the slopes which surround the house and cellar.

Our objective is to produce agreeable and expressive wines from our terroir.
