Montazeau (in French pronounced as /mɔ̃tazo/; Occitan (post 1500);: Montaseus) is a commune in the Dordogne department in Nouvelle-Aquitaine in southwestern France.
It is fairly close to Bergerac and Bordeaux. Many of its inhabitants derive their principal income from winemaking.
Montazeau is known for its annual cheese-wine festival in which the townspeople make cheese-wine (a local delicacy) and it is then judged by the mayor.
