2024-10-31 10:30 - 12:00 (Europe/Paris)
Domaine Berry-Altoff
3 montée du Fort
30250 Aubais

Our visit in October is slightly unusual in that we will be tasting wine from two winemakers: Domaine Aubaï Mema and Domaine Berry-Althoff. The owner of Domaine Aubaï Mema sold his vineyards to the younger couple running Domaine Berry-Althoff along the road, but he retained a stock of his excellent wines which he continues to sell. Domaine Berry-Althoff farms around 10 hectares of vineyards, producing organic and biodynamic wines and all are made from local historical grapes. They make a large number of different and interesting wines, all biodynamic, some low alcohol, many without sulfites, and sparkling wines made with an ancient formula.

The plan for the October meeting is to visit the Herbier des Garrigues to observe how essential oils are extracted from our garden hedge trimmings. However, I am having difficulty getting a commitment from him on a date. Apparently, the date is dependent on his work load. It will, most likely, be on Sunday October 27, but that is not yet confirmed.
