Around Saint-Drézéry

Mas des Cabres at Aspères

Four generations of vignerons have succeeded each other here since 1724. Situated half way between Nïmes and Montpellier, the vineyard and cellars have recently been transformed so as to produce vintages as tasty as they are different. Then ‘wine for dummies’ is a ramble through the vines where different aromas and tastes will excite all your senses.

Domaine de Massereau at Sommières

Massereau has evolved constantly since its acquisition in 1804, and is now in the vanguard of regional agriculture. It’s always been a special place for vines, once much enjoyed by the English crown. Nowadays, Arnaud Freychet will welcome you on a visit to his domaine which will be memorable for the tasting of rich, fruity wines.
