The Domaine de Garille offers self-catering cottages on the wine estate near the fabulous medieval city of Carcassonne.
Domaine de Garille is a typical Mediterranean estate with a group of stone houses looking out over the vineyards. A winery with a cellar and cottages, it is 10km from the walled city of Carcassonne and 5km from the Canal du Midi.
A hamlet surrounded by vineyards, the cottages were shared by the winemaker families working on the Domaine.
Renovated in 1998, Domaine de Garille has charming cottages, nestled in the vinyards in the tranquil hillside between pine woods and scrubland. This Estate is an ideal place to stay in and discover the world of wine and this magnificent region.
In the heart of the Cabardès Appellation, the chalky & clay terroir of the domaine combines the benefits of the Mediterranean sun and the coolness of the Atlantic. The Estate has a superb view of the Black Mountains and the Pyrenees.
The Domaine de Garille produces wines under the AOP Cabardès appellation. Wines from the IGP Pays d’Oc and Cité de Carcassonne are also produced.Grape varietals include Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Syrah, Grenache, Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. The wines of Cabardès come from the western end of the Languedoc and are exposed to both Atlantic and Mediterranean influences.This enables the growing and blending of grapes found in both Bordeaux and Languedoc.
