Domaine de la Citadelle
Nostradamus described this picturesque village as âa boat in an ocean of vineyards", and heâs not wrong.
About
Domaine de la Citadelle spreads out beneath the fortified village of MĂŠnerbes. One of the prettiest viniculture communes in France, the village came to the attention of the English-speaking world through the book (and later a Ridley Scott film with Russell Crowe) âA Good Yearâ by Peter Mayle. The Domaine de La Citadelle Botanical Gardens encompass terraces of wildflowers and spectacular views. From there you can visit the cellar for some quality wine samples (there's English-speaking staff and try before you buy). The wines produced here on the 74 plots are entirely organic and environmentally sympathetic. Afterwards, take a self-guided tour of the quirky Corkscrew Museum. Many of its 1200 pieces are unique works from before the Industrial Revolution, so individually handmade.
