Company information

Originally from Paris, we decided to change life and become wine makers in the South of France. We love to share our passion and enjoy a glass of our red wine afterwards while watching over the Pyrénées.

Property information

Dating back to 1612, this castle was a major site during the construction of the Canal du Midi, as its architect Pierre Riquet lived there. Elegantly restored, everything contributes to the charm of this rather intimate and family-friendly address.

Neighbourhood information

At the heart of the authentic village of Paraza, on the Canal du Midi; perfect to wander along the Canal and through the vineyards; within driving distance of lovely villages, historic abbeys and castles, super vineyards for wine-tasting, and beaches
