Our History
Domaine des Terres Cathares wines are also a tribute to the Cathars
In response to their refusal to conform to Catholic orthodoxy. This crusade became known as the Albigensian Crusade.
Many castles became hotbeds of Cathar resistance. Aguilar, Peyrepertuse, Queribus, Montségur...
The stele in memory of the Cathars erected in 1960 : homage to the Cathars who had found refuge in the castle of Montsegur and who were exterminated by hundreds on a pyre on March 15, 1244.
Burned alive at Villerouge-Thermenès in the Aude department.
These sculptures of more than 13 meters high, at the edge of the highway A 61, are signed by the artist Jacques Tissinier, they represent the Cathar knights. The singer Francis Cabrel paid tribute to them in a song : Les Chevaliers Cathares
Creation of the Domaine des Terres Cathares and purchase of the first hectares of vines in the Maury area at the foot of the castle of Queribus.
The Club of Domaine des Terres Cathares allows to federate around the vineyard and our regional soils the lovers of the wine and the regional cooking in a spirit of sharing
As part of the development of our wines, we have taken a stake in a family estate in the Corbières region, a few kilometers from Maury, not far from the Cathar castle of Aguilar, located in Tuchan in the commune of Mont Tauch
Within the framework of the development of the Domaine des Terres Cathares, we plan to renovate the cellar of Maury and a tasting room
