Domaine Modat
A clerk in Paris, Philippe Modat discovered his passion for working with vines. He spent his time between Paris and the Roussillon region, before settling fully into the estate. Created in 2007, Domaine Modat has already come a long way. It's now up to his two sons to take up the torch with brio. They are the new faces of a Roussillon vineyard in full renaissance.

Domaine Modat has almost exclusively century-old vines and has been certified organic and biodynamic since 2015. Their vineyards cover 25 hectares.
Domaine Modat works with respect for the grapes and is as hands-off as possible during vinification.

"Tasty!"

"A tasty, well-composed red, with aromas of black cherry, redcurrant, warm herbs and a little black pepper. Medium-bodied, with fine tannins. Refined, yet with verve and intensity on the palate. Juicy, concentrated finish with length. (James Suckling 2024)

"Memories, memories..."

"A long 18-month ageing period in demi-muids, followed by two years' rest in the bottle for this intense Caramany, which opens unreservedly with red fruit (cherry, strawberry) enhanced by a hint of leather. The attack is fresh and fine, the development full, round and delicate, around red fruits and melted tannins. Excellent balance and cellaring potential". (Le Guide Hachette 2024)

"The taste of wind on the brush and stones of a mountain (Jancis Robinson)"

"On soils of gneiss and granitic arena, the white grape varieties (white and grey grenache, macabeu, white carignan) are picked "here and there", scattered among very old red vines, then vinified in foudres and demi-muids, before a 10-month ageing period on lees. The result is a wine that is mineral, lively and taut, with discreet oaky support and a pleasant mellowness on the mid-palate, before a fresh finish of lemon and lychee". (Guide Hachette 2025)

spicy dish

"Fragrant nose of cooked lemons, apples, thyme, bay leaf and chalk. Medium-bodied and subtle. Silky and balanced, with a mineral edge and positive almond-like bitterness. The finish develops with precision. Roussanne, grenache, carignan blanc, macabeu and viognier. Made from organically grown grapes. For drinking or cellaring. (James Suckling 2023)
