Cap Wine International

What Cap Wine International does

Cap Wine International is a privately held French wine group founded in June 2008 by Pascal Debon (President), André Tremblay, and Christine De Caix-Lurton. The company owns and operates three wine estates totaling more than 400 hectares in France (Gascony and Provence) plus over 15 hectares in Portugal's Douro Valley, a UNESCO World Heritage site. Its three wholly owned operating subsidiaries are Domaine de l'Herré (Gascony, IGP Côtes de Gascogne), Mas des Borrels (Provence, AOP Côtes de Provence), and Quintas do Douro (Portugal, DOC Douro). The company is 51–100 employees and headquartered at 156 Chemin de Capon, Saint-Tropez.

The portfolio spans white, rosé, and red wines across the appellations IGP Côtes de Gascogne, AOP Côtes de Provence, IGP Pays d'Oc, and DOC Douro, marketed under roughly a dozen wine brands including PICHE PERDRIX, LA GALOPE, LES PARCELLAIRES DE L'HERRÉ, RÉSERVE DE L'HERRÉ, PETITE FAIBLESSE (low-alcohol), DOMAINE DE L'HERRÉ, MAS DES BORRELS, CAP AZUR LES BORRELS, M des Borrels, ESPRIT DES BORRELS, BEIRA DOURO, and Quintessence. Production relies on traditional winemaking enhanced with select modern techniques: night harvesting, INERTYS nitrogen-press oxidation control, temperature-controlled fermentation, and foot-treading in Douro lagares. The company holds HVE (Haute Valeur Environnementale) certification from the French Ministry of Agriculture covering biodiversity, phytosanitary strategy, and fertilization management across all vineyards.

Cap Wine International sells through two principal channels: a direct-to-consumer e-commerce boutique at boutique.capwineint.com, and dedicated sales teams for French domestic ([email protected]) and international export ([email protected]) markets. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; transactions are handled through direct sales contacts. The customer base is split between end consumers purchasing via the boutique or on-premise channels and international wine importers/distributors purchasing for resale in foreign markets. The company is privately held with no institutional investors, no parent entity, and no externally disclosed funding rounds; growth to date has been funded organically through property acquisitions.

Direct peers

• Domaine Ott: Iconic AOP Côtes de Provence rosé producer owned by LVMH. Closest brand-positioning peer for the Mas des Borrels rosé portfolio, though at a higher price tier.
• Vinadeis: French wine group combining cooperative production and owned estates across Languedoc, Bordeaux, and Rhône. Comparable multi-appellation estate-and-brand strategy at similar mid-scale.
• Gérard Bertrand: Languedoc-based producer with significant organic/biodynamic vineyard holdings and a broad multi-appellation brand portfolio. Comparable in sustainability positioning, DTC emphasis, and premium French wine scale.
• Boisset Collection: Family-owned French wine group operating estates across Burgundy, Beaujolais, and the Rhône. Directly comparable as a privately held, founder-controlled French wine group with multi-region estate ownership.
• Advini: French multi-region wine producer owning vineyards across several French appellations with a comparable portfolio of proprietary brands. Closest structural analog in terms of integrated estate ownership and multi-terroir strategy.
• Château d'Esclans: Provence rosé specialist with premium positioning and strong US distribution. Most direct competitor within AOP Côtes de Provence where Cap Wine's Mas des Borrels operates.
• Bernard Magrez Grands Chais: Owner of multiple châteaux and estates across Bordeaux, Languedoc, and international regions. Comparable multi-terroir premium strategy and direct ownership model in French wine.

Broad incumbents

• Les Grands Chais de France: Largest French wine producer by volume with extensive multi-region production. Comparable vertical integration but at much greater scale and broader geographic reach than Cap Wine.
• Maison Castel: One of the largest French wine groups with broad multi-appellation production and deep international distribution. Same industry vertical but at materially larger scale with extensive global importer relationships.

Regional players

• Roquefort Société: French regional producer with estate ownership and branded wine/gourmet portfolio. Adjacent peer sharing the Southwestern French production base and DTC model.
