Mas des Montagnes

WinemakerNicolas de Lorgeril and Miren de Saint Chamas (estate owners and driving force behind the Lorgeril family vineyards).

Mas des Montagnes is a Roussillon mountain-terroir project within Maison Lorgeril, focused on Côtes du Roussillon Villages and Côtes du Roussillon wines shaped by altitude, schist, limestone, gneiss and granite. The appeal is less château theatre than geological clarity: Grenache, Syrah, Carignan and Macabeu interpreted through terraces facing Mount Canigou, with a quiet, vineyard-led mood in Pennautier.

About

Mas des Montagnes is a Pennautier venue defined, from the information available, by its high-altitude Roussillon vineyard setting. The confirmed picture is scenic rather than service-led: vineyards between the Pyrenees and the Mediterranean, facing Mount Canigou, with terraces of schist, limestone, gneiss and granite. That is the reliable frame for understanding the place.

What can be said with confidence is that Mas des Montagnes belongs in the conversation for travelers and wine-minded visitors interested in mountain-influenced Roussillon landscapes near Pennautier.

Altitude, stone and the Roussillon style

The strongest detail is the setting: high-altitude Roussillon vineyards positioned between major natural influences, with the Pyrenees and Mediterranean shaping the broader landscape and Mount Canigou providing the visual anchor. The terraces are described through a mix of schist, limestone, gneiss and granite, which gives the site a dramatic mountain character.

Those geological details are useful because they explain why the venue is best approached as a place-centered stop rather than as a generic wine listing. The confirmed information does not support specific claims about varieties, named bottlings, vintages, prices by bottle, critic scores or awards. Instead, the dependable point is that Mas des Montagnes presents a structured, scenic vineyard identity built around altitude and varied stone terraces.

For visitors comparing options in and around Pennautier, the price category is listed as $$. Treat the $$ marker as a broad planning cue rather than a promise of any specific experience or spend.

Maison Lorgeril gives the mountain project its frame

For that reason, this section should not be read as a claim about a parent company or a documented house style. The safer and more accurate frame is simply the winery in Pennautier, understood through its mountain Roussillon vineyard setting.

What remains clear is the venue’s landscape identity. The site is presented through terraces, elevation and the contrast between Pyrenean influence and Mediterranean proximity. Those are grounded details and are enough to distinguish the winery from a more anonymous stop: the appeal is not an invented biography or accolade, but the combination of altitude, stone and view.

How to read the experience: quiet, vineyard-led, not spectacle-driven

The confirmed information supports a vineyard-led reading of the winery, but it does not verify whether visits are drop-in, appointment-only, guided, self-guided, multilingual or paired with food. It also does not verify parking, accessibility, group sizes, private events, delivery, take-out or any meal service. Those practical details should be confirmed directly before visiting.

What can be planned around is the setting. The winery is in Pennautier and is associated with a high-altitude Roussillon landscape facing Mount Canigou. If the purpose of a visit is to understand the feel of mountain vineyards between the Pyrenees and the Mediterranean, the description gives a clear reason to pay attention.

For wider Pennautier planning, keep the winery in its proper lane: a venue with a scenic vineyard identity and a moderate price category.

The verdict is concise: the winery is best described as a Pennautier venue with a dramatic high-altitude Roussillon vineyard setting, Mount Canigou views and terraces of schist, limestone, gneiss and granite. The reliable appeal is the landscape and the structured, elegant wine identity suggested by that terrain.
