Guillaume and his sister Marion inherited the estate from their parents in 1985, and they are now joined by his son Guillaume in working the land. Together they are the 6th and 7th generations of Alliès making wine at Reine Juliette.

The 100 hectare vineyard is situated on the southern side of the contemporary A9 highway, which historically was the renowned Via Domitia, connecting Italy to Spain. This ancient road played a pivotal role in the expansion of viticulture in the Languedoc region. Interestingly, the Via Domitia was also affectionately known as "via Reine Juliette" in honour of a queen who once traversed its path. Given its proximity to this historic route, the estate was aptly named after this illustrious queen.

This future involves a commitment to higher quality, reduced yields, and a more conscientious approach to vineyard work, ensuring the continued excellence of their wines.
