Private Tour

Discover the Corbières Through Its Wines, Villages and People

The Corbières is France's largest wine-growing region, yet it remains wonderfully authentic and refreshingly untouched by mass tourism.

This is a place where dramatic limestone hills meet endless vineyards, where family estates continue traditions passed down through generations, and where every village has its own story to tell.

Designed for travellers seeking a more personal experience, this private tour allows you to discover one of Southern France's most fascinating wine regions at your own pace. Without the constraints of a group, the day unfolds naturally, offering greater flexibility, more time at each stop and meaningful encounters with the people who bring the region to life.

Visit Two Exceptional Wineries

Throughout the day you'll visit two carefully selected wineries within the Corbières and prestigious Boutenac appellations.

Every estate has its own personality.

Some are centuries-old family properties.

Others are young winemakers bringing fresh ideas while respecting local traditions.

Rather than following a scripted visit, you'll meet the people behind the wines, explore their vineyards and cellars, and discover how climate, soils and generations of experience shape every bottle.

The tastings are relaxed, generous and adapted to your interests, whether you're already passionate about wine or simply curious to discover the wines of the Languedoc.

Discover Lagrasse

Nestled beside the River Orbieu, Lagrasse is officially recognised as one of Les Plus Beaux Villages de France.

Its medieval streets, stone bridges and impressive abbey make it one of the most beautiful villages in Occitanie.

As you stroll through its charming lanes with your private guide, you'll discover a place where history remains part of everyday life. Monks, merchants, pilgrims and winegrowers have all left their mark on this remarkable village over the centuries.

With no group schedule to follow, there's time to wander, browse local artisan shops or simply enjoy the peaceful atmosphere.

A Taste of Tradition

One of the region's best-kept secrets isn't wine.

It's vinegar.

We'll visit a traditional artisan vinegar producer where you'll discover how exceptional vinegars are crafted using local wines and time-honoured methods.

The tasting offers a fascinating glimpse into another aspect of the region's gastronomic heritage and surprises almost every visitor.

Lunch in the Heart of the Corbières

Lunch is another opportunity to experience the flavours of the region.

Enjoy a leisurely meal in one of our favourite local restaurants, where seasonal ingredients and regional wines take centre stage.

As this is a private tour, the pace of the day remains entirely yours, allowing plenty of time to relax and savour both the cuisine and the surroundings.

More Than a Wine Tour

The Corbières is much more than vineyards.

It's a landscape shaped by history, generations of winegrowers and an enduring connection between people and the land.

Throughout the day you'll discover not only outstanding wines but also the stories, traditions and local characters that make this region so distinctive.

This private experience offers an authentic and immersive introduction to one of Southern France's most rewarding wine regions.
