We went here for a tour of a real working Vineyard in France. You would be so surprised to find it quite a hard task to accomplish in France. After some searching online we found this fantastic Vineyard. The owners are so friendly and brought us through their story of how they happened to start such a great business. We... More

It was Wednesday... I think! My wife and I popped by to see if we could have a simple tasting & tour. We were on our honeymoon and are novices when it comes to wine, so as you can imagine a little apprehensive about being judged on what we liked and disliked. Then we met Joe, the winemaker! And as...

My wife and I, together with two family members, were told of this vineyard and how it was something worth doing when on a day out. We were treated exceedingly well, got educated on the savoir-faire of "the vineyard life" and had more than an hour with LIz and Joe. That was an experience in itself as, whilst reaping the... More

My partner (Naked Angel) and I had the most wonderful experience at this beautiful vineyard last w/end. Didn't now what to expect but were charmed by Liz & Joe (le vignorons) from arrival to departure, 2jour apres. Our tasting began at 6pm followed by a wonderful meal around a large table with a group of M&F Harley Bikers from Poland,... More

The location is perfect. The owners are very nice and friendly people who love what they do. Joe is making a very interesting presentation about the process of production of wine. Liz is a good cook but there should be a bit more food served for that price. Some of their wines are better and some are worse. I recommend... More

What a fantastic experience! We had a great time at O´Vineyards, Arrived to be warmly greated by Joe and Liz and Muse the dog, and had a lovely time learning about the wines with Joe, while Liz prepared us the most amazing dinner where the wine kept flowing :). We were really made to feel at home and nothing was... More

We are eager to recommend this experience to everyone visiting the Carcassonne region. It is so easy to see why this was top of the list on Trip Advisor! Joe and Liz really... More

Where to start? When first reading the reviews here of Domaine O’Vineyards, you could be forgiven for taking the superlatives written here with a modicum of apprehension. How could such a place be so perfect for wine lovers and, for that matter, for non-wine lovers? Well, believe me, it can. We had booked for a group of six (three couples)... More

After reading all the previous posts, we had high expectations, and we were not disappointed! Joe and Liz were extremely welcoming, knowledgeable and provided one of the highlights of our break in Carcassonne. The surrounding countryside is stunning, which appears from almost no-where from the approach through the suburb of Villemoustaussou. Joe clearly has a passion for the terroir and... More
