Each bottle from Mas de Bret is crafted through natural vinification, using indigenous yeasts, with no compromise.A sincere wine, shaped with care.
Legend has it that Hannibal once stopped here…What is certain is that the Roman aqueduct that supplied Arles with water still runs through this valley.A land of vines, for as long as anyone can remember.A forgotten place, rediscovered in 2009.
The valley owes its name to notary Bret, enriched by the Beaucaire fair.Here, he established a silk mill in a valley already dedicated to vines and culture.
Owned by the Hugues family, artists and sculptors.Jean-Baptiste Hugues, Prix de Rome, lived here.Then came silence… and nature reclaimed its place.
Jean-Luc Placet and Frédéric Petitbon discovered the valley.
Smitten by its charm, they called their friend Éloi Dürrbach:
« Éloi, could you help us make a garage wine here? »
Two hectares, cultivated without inputs, on terraced slopes.A rare, artisanal wine.A blank page turned into a promise fulfilled.
