DATING BACK TO THE 18TH CENTURY, THE WINERY GIVES A LASTING IMPRESSION. FROM THE TASTING SPACE, WE CAN GLIMPSE AT THE PARK WHERE GREEN OAKS AND ALEPPO PINES MAKE YOU FEEL OUT OF TIME. INSIDE, WE APPRECIATE THE CELLAR, COMBINING TRADITION AND MODERNITY, CEMENT AND STAINLESS STEEL VATS, AND A WINE-AGEING ROOM WITH OAK BARRELS. IN THE GLASS, GLORY UNION OF SYRAH, GRENACHE AND MOURVEDRE FOR THE REDS, OR ROUSSANNE AND WHITE GRENACHE FOR THE WHITES. A GREAT WINE EXPERIENCE IN THE MINERVOIS.
Lovers of wine, art, history, epicurean friends, enjoy a great wine experience in our cellar, along the Canal du Midi. During a tasting, we will be happy to introduce you to the history of the winery and its wines. For gourmands, local products and especially their producers are in the spotlight: mostly from the region and above all very good. And to flatter your five senses, we regularly organize art exhibitions or concerts in the heart of the cellar. Find out about upcoming events during your visit.
