Do you like kiwis, kumquats or pecans? All these fruits are rich in vitamins, antioxidants... and we forget about them. Catherine and Christian welcome you to their orchard and invite you to come and pick the fruits according to the season and until they run out. This is a pleasant way to discover the fruit before biting into it. Finally, don't hesitate to ask Catherine and Christian to explain their environmental approach and their organic production methods. They are a fascinating couple!

The particularity of the estate comes from the different terroirs: to the south, in the Aspres, 50 hectares on clay-limestone soils, greedy wines with character, and to the north, in the Agly valley (Maury), about ten hectares spread over schist, granite and gneiss, here it is the minerality that speaks, the finesse of the tannins and the complexity of the aromas. And in the end, we get warm, very aromatic and balanced wines. We like this balance in their wines but also the love of the land, the transmission of knowledge, generation after generation.

Domaine Sol Payré is a must for wine lovers. In addition to its restaurant, which serves meals on site, the estate also has a cellar where you can buy their wines. Domaine Sol Payré offers a wide selection of wines, from vins doux naturels to reds, whites and rosés. Cuvées include Vertigo 2020, Memento 2020, Trilogia 2021, Ater 2018, Sacré Numéro Rosé 2022, Ivresse des Sens Blanc 2022, Rosae 2022, Imo Pectore 2020, Scelerata 2020, Albae 2021, Rivesaltes Hors d'Age and Muscat de Rivesaltes 2022. Magnums are also available according to availability and vintage.

The^250m2 sales area (and its large car park) will seduce you with its choice of carefully selected winemakers. Steve and Jess spend their time tasting bottles, so you can trust them! The philosophy of this shop is to offer wines at producer prices. The other strength of Vincoeur Catalan is their online site where you can place orders and which is full of treasures. We particularly liked the richness of the content not only on the wines but also on each producer. Hats off to them!
