If you're a gourmet, this is the place for you! This delicatessen is undoubtedly one of the best in town. We come here for the quality of the products selected, whether from the region or elsewhere. Local wines and beers, crémants and blanquettes de Limoux, champagnes and spirits to make your mouth water! And when it comes to good food, you'll love the cheeses from Chez Xavier (MOF), the artisanal charcuterie, the exceptional Iberian hams, the cakes and other gourmet preserves, and the ever-wise advice from the team.

Le Verre d'Un awakens your taste buds even before you walk through the front door! Here, you'll discover the typicity of our wines and terroirs, as you browse through 400 references. Wines from the Minervois, Corbières, Clape, Malepère, Cabardès, Limoux, Fitou... Le Verre d'Un is also a restaurant and a wine bar, ideal for after-work drinks and relaxing with friends. The ideal place to find out all about the region's finest wines!

Cartouche is the new meeting place for eco-curious epicureans in Leucate. After serving as perfect ambassadors for Languedoc wines and beyond in Brussels, Paris and Toulouse, they're back home again! Arnaud Granel and Jean-Baptiste Bru propose a concept combining good wines, often organic and natural, from the region and around the world, nibbles (on the premises or to take away) and local crafts: Poteries Not and Couteaux du Zouave. A pleasant, modern setting for discovering wines that may be unconventional, but that open the door to conversation

In the heart of the Cité district, the Cave de l'Amphore is a treasure trove of wines. Red, white, rosé, oak-aged or light, budget or grand cru, the team will guide you according to your tastes, desires and budget. The wine selection is rigorous, from regional wines to those from other French wine-growing regions. To complete the picture: a fine selection of sweet and savoury treats, a wide choice of spirits, champagnes and tasting workshops. An address where you can even find the unobtainable.

Le Caveau du Clos is our favorite wine shop, and we'll tell you why. Over 450 references of local wines, as well as fine Burgundy, Bordeaux and Champagne, are on offer. It's impossible not to find what you're looking for! Aurore and Fabrice know the producers they represent inside out, and the same goes for their spirits, gins, rums and whiskies. Let them guide you, they'll surprise you! Local products, gift sets and gourmet baskets are also available. Note the tastings organized from Wednesday lunchtime to Friday evening.

Worthy sons of Bacchus, Arthur Lallemand and Adrien Mingaud from Limoux transport us through their selection of wines into a universe of aromas and passion. The love of the land runs through their veins, and beyond being "wine selectors" they are also blenders and producers. They have opened a tasting, sales and exchange area in the heart of the bastide, highlighting the work of the most promising winegrowers, exalting the richness of the vintages unearthed. Local delicatessen products enrich their offer.

Wine producer, Bertrand Gabriel Vigouroux offers in his Atrium cellars the wines of his production where his two must-have Châteaux of the Cahors appellation are honoured: Château de Haute-Serre and Château de Mercuès. You will find in his cellars Atrium, a unique concept of wine shop with more than a hundred references, a wide selection of wines and spirits, aperitifs and regional products, a tasting area and professional advice. The Atrium is the ambassador of Maison Georges Vigouroux wines.

This cellar has the most well-stocked champagne corner in the department. But if its reputation was made around bubbles, one should not forget that the cellarman is a finder of exceptional wines. As he likes to say, he is the specialist of "artisan winemakers" in particular. What the Petit Futé will remember are the memorable themed evenings on one Thursday a month with the winegrowers for private tastings, by invitation. And every other Thursday, tasting evenings with tapas around the barrels laid out on the sidewalk.

Our favorite sommelier (11th in the 2018 competition) takes us on new adventures: a cellar, a wine bar and a dining cellar. Julien selects the best wines from here and elsewhere, looks for the best quality/price ratio and above all... we love him for all the sound advice he gives. The evening is the occasion for afterwork around tapas à la Barcelonaise to accompany a tasting. The place to be for an environment conducive to relaxation and enjoyment. Not forgetting the magical theme nights. We repeat, we love it!

If you don't have the time to explore the vineyards of the Rhône Valley, make a detour to this wine fair where François Cas, a sommelier by trade and a knowledgeable wine merchant who provides fine local cuisine, officiates. He has nurtured his passion and experience with starred chefs in France and elsewhere as far away as Uruguay and Canada. You can trust him, he knows what he sells and knows the estates and most of the winegrowers whose bottles fill his shop. Spend a Friday late afternoon there, you can extend it with the Apéro-Comptoir.

A true ambassador for the world's wines, beers and spirits, Quentin - a globe-trotter with a passion for oenology and indigenous grape varieties - has already visited and worked in many countries, including Russia, Georgia and Argentina. With his partner Lucille, they have brought back from their many travels bottles from all over the world, but you'll also find local wines (including Cahors), with quality as the only common denominator! You'll find a warm welcome, sound advice and bottles you can't find anywhere else.

In the heart of the village, enter this Ali Baba's cave with a thousand Oc treasures taken over by Gérard Mas. At the same time a wine bar, a bistro, a small restaurant and a local grocery store, it is an atypical place, important for the intergenerational link, where you can air your mind and your gullet! Don't hesitate to take a coffee break on the shaded terrace, on the road to the Cathar castles. Small in size but big in its choice of products, the establishment will make you discover the local producers and the soil of Aude through tasty tastings.

The Atelier des Vignerons is temporarily closed, awaiting a buyer.

Located in the heart of Narbonne, this wine merchant is first and foremost a passionate connoisseur of fine wines and French cinema, and his wife is a decorator. That's why here you're bound to find the unusual object or pretty bottle to buy. We appreciate the selection of wines exclusively from the region, rums, craft beers and gourmet preserves for aperitifs. In terms of decoration, 2022 was marked by the success of the wrought-iron emus, and Gilles has promised us other strange beasts for 2023... A warm welcome and sound advice.

A newcomer to Narbonne, Stéphanie Asco's highly attractive shop is a concentrate of good taste and gourmet delights, and it's because she doesn't want to be like everyone else that you'll find everything here that you won't find anywhere else. First of all, you'll discover a fine selection of wines from the region and beyond, all organic or biodynamic, but also spirits, gins, rums, digestifs... And what can we say about the selection of gourmet products such as Kalios smoked olive oil! A bit of literature and the very enlightened advice of Fanny the epicurean.

It was in this old pharmacy, in La Croix-Verte, that Cécile Parès tinkered with her Officine. An apothecary's with very unusual bottles. The young woman has set up a beautiful space that compiles 200 references of wines, whiskies, cognacs, armagnacs and a volley of homemade beers. L'Officine also holds a licence IV, which allows the mistress of the premises to serve drinks and good boards of cold meats to accompany your glass. An asset for this address, open all year round, in this small village rather accustomed to hibernation.

This independent winery is a must in the city. Appreciated by the locals, particularly for the good advice distilled by the team, you can count on a pleasant welcome. A partner of the "Languedoc winegrowers", the wine merchant selects the best wines from them, including primeur wines. While his references tend to be Mas Bruguière, Domaine de Cazeneuve or Clavel Pierre, he is just as knowledgeable about Bordeaux crus, Loire wines and champagnes. From Nebuchadnezzar to half-bottles and cubes, there's something for everyone.

"Organic, white and red" is the motto, and we almost feel like adding "rosé"! A small, colourful cellar in the town centre run by Simon Delpérié, a young enthusiast. The emphasis is on the wonderful wines of the neighbouring Languedoc region, produced by organic farmers. Of course, you can also find all the Gallic terroirs. The ideal is to let yourself be tempted by a tasting on the barrels placed on the pavement of the street. The shop has moved a few dozen meters to more spacious premises, but still in the rue du Greffe.

Tasting is a pleasure in this trendy wine-shop. Olivier, a young wine merchant and great connoisseur, will give you the advice you need. In his attractive light wood décor, you'll discover over 800 references, some of them exclusive to Collioure: Rectorie, Préceptorie, Gardiès, Clos des Fées, Gauby, Abbé Rous, Côtes d'Agly, Pithon de Calce, in short, the department's finest winemakers. All at estate prices. During the school vacations, tastings are organized every day. Everything is on their Facebook page.
