"From the moment of arrival to departure we were looked after in the most splendid, style driven through stunningly beautiful, hidden wine growing country on roads with verges coloured by wild flowers. By the end of the week-end, the eclectic range of delightful, fun "wine" experiences has left me longing to return - a truly "money can't buy" holiday. John and I ran out of superlatives describing it. "
-a HUGE thank you to Jean Marc and you.
Love Pat

Jones Wine Tour

The sun came out last weekend for the Jones Wine Tour.  Guests, Michael and Nikki, who were relieved to get away from the grey skies of Oxford enjoyed visiting the Queribus Castle in Cucugnan,  Aguilar Castle in Tuchan and relaxing with a barbecue at Domaine Jones.  

We sampled the local grape varieties and visited Domaine de Soulane near Tautavel.  We ate lots, sat in the sun lots and completely relaxed into the southern french way of life.
