Château Guillem de Montjustin - Vineyard Partners - Laithwaites

A tiny Corbières estate, a red crafted with passion

Ancient vines, poor soils, two great winemakers and their fabulous, minute-production red ... but they need your support



The normal bottle price is £21 but Vineyard Partners pay just £14 saving £7 a bottle. You will get this lovely ‘thank you’ saving every year for as long as you remain a Partner.

About the vineyard:

Jean-Baptiste and Amelie are two passionate young winemakers, devoted to their tiny family estate, Château Guillem de Montjustin. Their finest vineyards are over a century old, planted by Jean-Baptiste’s great grandfather. No wonder then, their grapes are too good to send to the local co-op, so they started making the wine themselves. But it's difficult to make it viable when production is so small, and it's all made by hand, in a tiny, shed-like winery. Taste their fabulous Corbières and you'll understand why we'd like you to help them make it work. One Vineyard Partner was so impressed, he drove all the way to Corbières to see them.

The wine:

This couple's vineyard is literally a road apart from 'Grand Cru' of Corbières, Boutenac. There the famous Gérard Betrand's wines fetch £40-£60 a bottle. Same soils, same grapes, all beautifully crafted, but Amelie and Jean-Baptiste’s wine comes at a fraction of the price. It's a rich, expressive red, with concentrated blackberry, cherry and boysenberry flavours woven through with herbal and sweet spice notes. Full bodied, firmly textured, with velvet tannins and a long finish.

How can you help?

Sign up for an annual case of their rich, ripe, authentic Corbières. For them it’s a guaranteed sale every year, making it easier to plan and afford the kit, and maybe, one day, for both of them to give up their day jobs that pay the bills. For Partners – you have a unique red, at a special Partners-only price, reserved for you each year. You'll get updates, can visit whenever you want and will feel a valued member of the team.
