About the Winemaker

In 1992, Alain Carrere and his wife, Agnes founded Domaine de Majas in the area of Caudies De Fenouilledes, France. With deep roots in wine making, Alain’s ancestors had been growing grapes in Roussilon. Alain began by following the conventional approach, and selling the majority of his production to large super market chains. However, after an encounter with winemaker Tom Lubbe; Lubbe offered to mentor Alain with a fresh perspective of using Carignan, Grenache, and the rare Marcabeu variety and emphasizing organic viticulture and minimal intervention in winemaking. From there, a verbal agreement was set in motion with all 40 hectared converted into organic farming, synthetic additives, commercial yeasts, and excessive sulfur were eliminated from their winemaking process. For Alain and Agnes, it was more than a technical change, it was a renewal for the vision and passion of winemaking.

Today, Domaine de Majas wines became known for their freshness, elegance, authenticity and terrier driven qualities; reflecting Alain’s passion, perseverance, and his deep connection to the land
