Organic stores Pyrénées-Orientales

Clos Massotte is a small 7-hectare estate nestled in the heart of the fertile Aspres region. Pierre Olivier is a poet in love with the living world, who runs his vineyard with the utmost respect for the environment. He has as much love for people as he does for his vines, which he pampers and cuddles: "Nature invites me every day to satisfy her desires and create fruit in her image". As the years go by, his wines are always surprising and unclassifiable. They stand out from traditional flasks and explore new, intuitive avenues. Unclassifiable and waiting to be discovered!

Ophélie and Félix chose Opoul to raise their herd of goats. 150 animals that roam on more than 300 ha : "an extensive breeding on wild garrigues where thyme, rosemary and oaks constitute the essential food of the goats", comments Félix. The range of cheeses is varied: fresh, semi-dry, goat tomme, meli-mato, recooked paste... and everything is organic, bravo! You will also find local products and organic please. Bravo !

Philippe is one of the few winegrowers in the Conflent. Low yields, manual pressing, punching of the cap... Minimalist work, old-fashioned and organic agriculture, all sprinkled with a lot of love and passion. Carignan, grenache and syrah will delight your taste buds. The vintages of this "garage wine" (because Philippe vinifies in his garage) are straight and well balanced. The juices are full-bodied, colourful and there is a little sweetness that seduces us. Between 4 and 5,000 bottles per year, no more, so hurry up. We'll say it again, a little wine that's on the rise...

At Mas Ripouille, in the heart of orchards and market gardens, Nicolas and his team welcome you to the shop where you will also find local products (wine, honey, oil...), some organic food, and above all their beautiful stalls covered with fruit and vegetables from the garden - picked fresh in the morning! At the Ferme du Bio Sillon, in response to the madness of men and intensive agriculture, we propose to you to "eat differently", a search for tasty and healthy food. Other address: République market in Perpignan on Saturday morning.

The students of the IUT of Perpignan have at their disposal a 3,5 ha agricultural domain labeled BIO since 2008 adjacent to the teaching buildings.

By appointment, a reception is reserved for the public and you have the possibility to buy all these products. Great quality and very accessible prices: vegetables, almonds, olive oil, grape juice, wine, honey, rabbits and snails. To the table!

In Opoul, a small Catalan village clinging to the last limestone foothills of the Corbières, and dominated by the castle of Perillos which watches over the Roussillon plain, Sophie and Cyril run a small organic vineyard of 5 ha. The soil is stony, the climate dry and harsh, not to mention the tramontane wind that blows. Respect for the land and meticulous work are the obvious choice for Sophie and Cyril in order to produce very aromatic and concentrated wines. A lot of freshness and finesse in a country where water is so rare that it has its own festival.

Véronique and Mélodie welcome you to their beautiful 150^m2 space dedicated to organic and sustainable values of our earth. You will find a large choice of sweet and savoury groceries, fruits and vegetables and gluten-free products. Apart from food supplements and cosmetics, the emphasis is not only on organic farming but also on the short circuit. Here you can find the main part of the ecological production of Cerdanya and Capcir. The contact and the welcome are worthy of a small country grocery store where your two hosts are listening.

Solenn and Dominique, it's another idea of viticulture. He is an oenologist and agronomist, she is a sommelier, their philosophy attracts the attention of great experts and critics and the awards start to rain down. Their wines are characterized by classic aromas, offering more finesse thanks to the freshness of the terroir and powdery tannins. Lovers of lively and crisp wines will find their happiness here! Professionalism and craftsmanship are the epithets best suited to this passionate and endearing couple.

Mas Py is different from other organic farms because of the diversity of the products cultivated or farmed. First of all, there are the Céret cherries and in particular the dried cherry which has become the flagship of the estate. Then there is the cultivation of olive trees of different varieties that produce extra-virgin olive oil. Finally, Brigitte and Erwin devoted themselves to the breeding of Iberian black pigs, which frolic in the open air under cork oaks and coppices. Incomparable cold meats! To sum up, Mas Py is a real Ali Baba's cave for epicureans.

Mas Peyre is first and foremost the story of a family who claim to live by " love and wine ". From stem to glass, it's this philosophy of respect for the land that drives the family. The results live up to expectations: awards are pouring in and Mas Peyre's wines are receiving rave reviews from the press. A warm welcome at the tasting cellar, no doubt about it, but above all it's the wine tourism offer that's so appealing: an escape-game-style stroll through the vines, and a lunchtime restaurant in summer. We love the concept and the spirit!

"I have always been intrigued and passionate about living things, especially what the earth gives us in return for the attention we give it. David's passion is the infinite field of all the fragile and indispensable interactions of living beings. That is why he runs his vineyard according to the precepts of organic farming and biodynamics. It is by walking through the vineyards or by tasting in the cellar that one discovers the true personality of the wines of Domaine Mascareil. Wines to be discovered absolutely and to be tasted without moderation.

Alexandre and Aurore raise pigs in the open air in Eus. Family work and love of animals to offer them the best living conditions. 6 ha in the middle of nature at the foot of Canigó. Can Mathilde is making great strides and is gradually gaining recognition in the rather closed circle of high quality local products. Great restaurateurs already trust them and put forward on their menu the "TireTaps" (corkscrew in Catalan), the registered trademark of this couple of breeders. Don't miss the visits of the farm on reservation.
