Snow on Languedoc vineyards






It just took a few centimetres of snow 
to transform the land we know so well into something fascinating 

 Truly a winter wonderland …

This was in Lagamas last week, in our Carignan vineyard.

Times change …



Last week, I showed you our olive trees, covered in fruit, apparently nestling in spring sunshine …
And now, see for yourselves …
The bleak midwinter has arrived; for how long ? We’ll see. 







The land of the olive …




The olives enjoying their last few hours in the Lagamas sunshine.

  Soon they’ll be hand-picked, then gently pressed and transformed into luscious oil …






A bit of a dream to welcome in 2013




A sight for sore eyes, may your spirit float free …






All the best for 2013


May 2013 bring you health, wealth and happiness …


                          Here at the Domaine, we believe future vintages will inherit the ancestral qualities of these centennial trees !    



The first is a green oak protecting the vinification cave, the second a giant olive living between Montpeyroux and St Jean de Fos.
