This is no museum: here, we open bottles. The tasting cellar in Félines-Minervois, at the foot of the Montagne Noire, is open Monday to Friday, 9am to 12pm and 2pm to 5pm; at weekends, by appointment. The tasting is free if you leave with some bottles.
On weekdays you can drop in during opening hours, but it is best to let us know. At weekends, it is by appointment. Tell us when you are coming and how many of you there will be: we will confirm the time.
No signposted tour, no rehearsed speech. We open a bottle, talk about the place — this sky that changes ten times a day, the black schists underfoot — and answer your questions. Five minutes or an hour: as long as you need.
If you liked the wines, you leave with some bottles and the tasting is free. Otherwise, it costs €5.
