Terre des Dames — Winery in Murviel-lès-Béziers

The owner of this domaine is Dutch, and it's fascinating to hear her story: she took over the domaine, studied oenology and went entirely her own way, and... was declared crazy for it. But the domaine is lovely to visit, and the wines are of a high level and among the better ones in the region. In the summer months (April to September) the domaine holds a free reception with a tour, tasting and aperitif twice a week: on Tuesdays at 16.00 in French or English, and on Thursdays at 16.00 in Dutch. The tasting takes place on the terrace overlooking the vineyards, and afterwards you can buy the wines directly at the domaine.
