Claire Dufau leads the family business with dedication to traditional viticulture and respect for nature. The vineyards benefit from clay and limestone soils and a temperate climate, ideal for grape varieties such as Tannat, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Manseng. Domaine de Maouries produces powerful Madiran wines that are valued both locally and internationally for their quality and authentic character.
