Two emblematic appellations of Southwest France

The vineyard of Domaine de Laougué expresses itself through two major appellations, complementary and strongly identity-driven.

AOC Madiran: power and elegance

On these renowned terroirs, the estate works with red grape varieties of strong character:

Tannat, the backbone of the appellation, structured and profound

Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc, bringing finesse, aromatic complexity and balance

The Madiran wines of Domaine de Laougué stand out for their controlled intensity, excellent ageing potential and ability to evolve gracefully over time.

AOC Pacherenc du Vic-Bilh: freshness and precision

On the white wine side, subtlety and emotion take center stage:

Petit Manseng, expressive, with fruity and floral notes

Gros Manseng, vibrant and refreshing

Petit Courbu, offering roundness and harmony

These white wines charm with their natural balance, freshness and remarkable aptitude for gastronomic pairings.

Responsible viticulture guided by common sense

At Domaine de Laougué, quality begins in the vineyard. The philosophy is simple: respect living ecosystems to craft sincere wines.

Reasoned vineyard management to preserve soils and biodiversity

Hand harvesting to pick grapes at optimal ripeness

Rigorous selection, plot by plot

Parcel-based vinification by grape variety, inspired by the methods of leading estates

Careful barrel ageing to refine structure, reveal aromas and ensure strong ageing potential
