Cabernet Day is tomorrow!  September 2nd.  The wines and last minute RSVPs are filing in.
And you can still come too!  I hope a lot of you swing by Domaine O’Vineyards tomorrow starting around 19h00.  We’ll have some stellar wines open.  You can show up earlier, but we’ll put you to work. ;D
For those of you [...]

When I first heard about Cabernet Day, my immediate reaction was to jump on board.  And I kind of assumed that everybody would follow me unquestioningly… but there have been some questions, rightfully posed, as to why exactly I’m hosting a Cab Day event in the Languedoc.  I want to take a moment to explain [...]

I just got an email from Rowan Gormley: “you’re on!“.
Residents of the United Kingdom can find mixed cases of Domaine O’Vineyards wine online at Naked Wines.  The mixed case will be a perfect introduction the wide range of big, bold red wines we make.  We try to balance that new world compulsion to make extracted, [...]

Our friends at Naked Wines wanted us to film a video to say hello and present O’Vineyards to their online community. My dad and I figured it would be fun to show them what we’re doing at this time of year. You have heard me talk about it like ten times now. We [...]

I know that you know that I lift wires at this time of year.  But you know what else I do?  Answer a lot of questions from tourists. It seems like I get at least four or five emails each week about travel plans around Carcassonne and in the Languedoc Roussillon in general.
My emails tend [...]

“It’s like a kid in a candy shop when it comes to Languedoc-Roussillon – so much to choose from!”
Cork’d, an offbeat social network devoted to sharing stories about wine, has just published a nice interview with yours truly.
So they shared the O’Vineyards story with their 35,000+ mailing list.  That’s cool.
But more importantly, they’ve been [...]

This was probably published around ViniSud, but it only just popped onto my radar!  Sud de France Export keeps a database of all the products that use the Sud de France brand and participate in its events, and they added some very flattering editorial to our entry.
“Ils sont fiers d’être considérés parmi les meilleurs artisans [...]

It is with great pleasure that I announce Domaine O’Vineyards is officially on board with a very cool group in the UK known as Naked Wines.  Thanks to Naked, you’ll be able to get delicious O’Vineyards wines without any unnecessary expenses and wasteful middlemen.  I don’t know if it’s the traditional definition of direct shipping, [...]

One of our best customers is La Barbacane, the Michelin-starred restaurant in l’Hotel de la Cité in Carcassonne.  I was delighted to hear that they’ll also be serving one of our wines in Le Jardin de l’Evêque, the outdoor garden area across from the hotel.
And on top of this great news, they commissioned a painted [...]

I just wrapped up my first day at the London International Wine Fair 2010.  It was pretty awesome.  You’ve got the usual schmoozing with winos you’ve met the world over.  And somewhere amidst all the kissing hands and shaking babies (might be backwards, or maybe not) you get to taste a lot of wine.
