Generations of Winemaking

An Organic Wine Estate in Minerve

In the heart of the Minervois, Domaine Vordy grows its vines organically, allowing the richness and character of our terroir to shine through.

Each vintage is crafted in limited quantities, with respect for nature and the winemaking traditions passed down through our family.

Famille Vordy - Domaine viticole Familiale dans le Minervois
OUR STORY

A Family Heritage

Here, every wine tells a story: the story of a land, a climate and a winemaking tradition passed down through generations with passion.

The story of our estate began long before the first bottle was ever made. For generations, our family has cultivated these lands with the same conviction: to produce wines that truly reflect their terroir.

Over the years, the estate has grown around a simple belief: to let nature guide our work rather than seek to control it.

Behind every bottle are the people, the craftsmanship and the shared passion that bring our wines to life.

Above all, Domaine Vordy is a family journey. Each generation brings its own energy and vision, allowing the estate to evolve while remaining true to the values that have always guided us.

OUR COMMITMENTS

Our Philosophy

Organic Farming

Hand-Harvested Grapes

Winemaking Without Added Sulphites

Small-Batch Production

A Terroir Shaped by Minerve

Each wine from Domaine Vordy is born from the unique combination of a vintage and its terroir.

Our vines draw their character from a variety of soils, including gravelly soils, red clay and limestone, each reflecting the distinctive geology of Minerve.

This diversity of terroirs allows us to bring out the individual character of our grape varieties and craft authentic wines in which freshness, intensity and balance come together in harmony.

OUR VINEYARD

Working with the Seasons

Each season brings its own work, and every task helps prepare the vintage to come. From the vineyard to the cellar, we work alongside nature with patience and care, allowing the full richness of our terroir to express itself.

Preparing the Vines for a New Season

Taille d'hiver

Winter is the season for pruning. Each vine is carefully pruned by hand to regulate yields and encourage the grapes to ripen to their full potential.

Harvesting at the Perfect Moment

Hand Harvesting

Each bunch is picked by hand only when the grapes have reached optimal ripeness. This careful selection ensures the quality of the grapes that will go into our wines.

Revealing the Character of Each Vintage

Winemaking & Ageing

Our wines are made without added sulphites to preserve the purity of the fruit and the expression of our terroir. Each wine is then carefully aged to develop its full character.

Letting the Terroir Speak

Vineyard Management

Throughout the year, we tend our vines using organic farming practices. Every task is carried out with care and precision to protect the soil, encourage biodiversity and preserve the natural balance of the vineyard.

OUR GRAPE VARIETIES

The Grape Varieties at the Heart of Our Wines

Each grape variety is carefully cultivated and crafted according to its natural characteristics and potential, allowing us to reveal the richness and diversity of our terroir.

The Soul of Our Old Vines

Carignan

An iconic grape variety of the Languedoc, Carignan brings structure, freshness and intensity to our wines. Grown on old vines, it develops aromas of dark fruit, wild Mediterranean herbs and spices, with a lively freshness on the palate.

Elegance

Syrah

Syrah brings finesse and elegance to our wines. It is characterised by notes of dark fruit, violet and spice, supported by supple tannins and a beautifully lingering finish.

Generosity

Grenache

Grenache brings roundness, richness and generosity. With aromas of ripe red fruit, it adds body and softness to our blends.

Depth

Mourvèdre

Mourvèdre brings depth and complexity to our wines. It reveals notes of dark fruit, spice and wild Mediterranean herbs, together with excellent ageing potential.
