If there is a vineyard apart in a world where everything ends up looking the same, it is that of Banyuls and Collioure.

Here, in these vineyards in terraces overhanging the sea, we work and harvest without any possible mechanization. Our first concern is to give birth to a wine that is a witness of its land, of its strength, of its gentleness too. A wine that is a witness of these stories of men and women who work together in an adventure always renewed for this symbol of life and sharing.

The estate of Domaine de la Rectorie is composed of thirty hectares of vineyards, with vines that are more than fifty years old in average.
The main grape variety is grenache, together with carignan, syrah and mourvèdre. Brown schists soils are the dominant type.

From the diversity of plots, with different altitudes and orientations, we are able to elaborate a range of wines going from the dry Collioure -white, rosé and red- to the fortified sweet Banyuls, proposed here in their two different approaches: the Rimage, aged in full tanks or barrels -protected from the air-, and the traditional oxidative Banyuls.

The first vintage of La Rectorie was 1984.

The winery is managed by Thierry Parc and his son Jean-Emmanuel.
