Domaine Magellan
Legendary Bruno Lafon originates from Burgundy, but moved to South of France already in 1999 to seek inspiration to create more accessible wines and new blends, from completely new terroirs. Lately, Bruno has turned the business into a family operation, where his wife is dedicated to the sustainability and ecological aspects of wine production.

Located in the area of the Pézenas appellation, this area has a superb view of the Mediterranean Sea and the black mountains. The diversity of soils is its strongest asset, allowing different grape varieties to express their best. It is a perfect site for creating exceptional wines and therefore not a coincidence that vines have been planted here for more than 2000 years.
