The genesis of this estate began 2,000 years ago during the time of the Roman Empire and the Via Domitia. It was reborn in the 18th century thanks to a personality of national stature, Mr. Durand, who had the farmhouse built using local materials, stone and cayroux, and turned it into a large wine estate. Serge and Marie-Pierre were seduced by the charm and soul of this place, by its exceptional location, its natural beauty against the backdrop of the emblematic Canigou Mountain, the Pyrenees, the Albères, the Corbières, and on the other side, less than 3,000 meters, the Mediterranean.

This is an exceptional terroir, pure and hard. The vines extend over a high quaternary terrace characterized by an upper layer of 2 meters deep rolled pebbles on a clay bedrock.
The climate, dry and hot with maximum sunshine, more than 300 sunny days a year, a lot of wind, little rain, is the quintessence of the Mediterranean.
The sea tempers the excesses of hot days with cooler nights softened by sea breezes…
These physical characteristics lead to a natural selection for the benefit of quality: fruit, aromas, power…

The essence of Mas Baux is their organic and biodiversity practices. An ethic, an aesthetic and a way of life based on a respect for nature and the desire to allow living things to express themselves in richness and diversity.
