Some time ago I set myself a personal goal of replacing the usual supermarket sourced inhabitants of my wine cellar with P-O wines.
A year and a half in the making, beleaguered with delays… the long-awaited indoor markets in the centre of Perpignan are finally open for business.
We love publishing your reviews. They’re honest (mostly!) objective, (hopefully) unrelated to advertising (bien sûr!) and cover a wide range of tastes, prices, and places. You might not always agree, the chef might be having a bad day, your standards might be higher….or lower – but they give you an idea of what’s available.
Mas Cristine Open Day on 9th December is a chance to taste all our wines, accompanied by some snacks from the best restaurants and food producers in the region, all in a festive atmosphere.
Tony Goodman starts off the ‘Tried and Tasted’ wine series at four fabulous domaines; Domaine de la Perdrix, Chateau de Corneilla, Arnaud de Villeneuve and Dom Brial.

On Sunday 12th November , the wine producers of Latour de France open their doors wide and invite you to join them for a day of tasting.
The Tasty – a typical English breakfast sausage, great for a brunch
The Traditional – sausages like they used to be with a subtle mix of herbs and a hint of nutmeg
Cumberland – our speciality having trained in Cumbria.
Leek – no small crumbs of leek, we use great big bits
Jalapeno – mexican chillis for the strong of heart!
We are now taking orders for the traditional Xmas cakes we produce each year for Téléthon.
