history
Located in Eauze, Gers, Domaine de Millet is at the heart of the Armagnac region. Shifting from mixed farming, the estate now dedicates 80 hectares to producing "Domaine de Millet" wines of Côtes de Gascogne.

Their historic 18th-century estate reflects a deep-rooted wine culture, where vineyard rhythms still dictate the pace of life.
