If you're thinking of coming to stay at Le Couvent, Roujan or you've already made your booking, why not think of incorporating a three hour (or longer) wine tour?
Wine expert Dominic George who runs Languedoc Wine Tours will pick you up from Le Couvent, take you to some of the best domaines in the area, teach you to taste wine, organise a tasting and explain about the wine-making process, then drop you off back here - after a picnic lunch too, if you wish. What a perfect way to spend a day in the biggest vineyard on Earth.
Just let us know well in advance and we'll arrange it with Dominic.

We were amongst a small group of people that Hans and Christa took around their vineyards at Domaine de Bourdic yesterday. As we walked past different grapes Hans explained the wine growing / producing process and tastings were provided as we went. The day was beautiful and the countryside was magic! Vines, a variety of flowers, butterflies, crickets and birds abounded! Back at the cellar a few hours later, Hans and Christa provided a very generous lunch with wine. Great company also made the day fun - there were people from Germany, Switzerland, Ireland, GB and Australia. The wines were fantastic and well worth a try.
I was delighted by the wine tour at Bourdic.

Dominic was a very gracious wine expert at all times throughout the day - he shared his amazing knowledge of wines with the 8 of us and facilitated discussions between us and the local wine producers we visited. He also answered our questions about history, architecture and local customs.
We had a simple but very tasty lunch and finished up in Faugeres later in the afternoon - a very beautiful village with spectacular wines!
Another great day out!
