South of France Wine Tourism

Wine tourism in the South of France: a sensory journey in the heart of Hérault

At Maison Mia Majorelle, wine tourism isn’t just a visit, it’s a curated experience. Located in Roujan, surrounded by Faugères and Pézenas vineyards, our gîte invites you to explore one of the oldest wine-growing regions of France with all five senses.

Stroll among century-old vines as cicadas hum in the background. Sample organic reds, crisp rosés, and ancestral-method sparkling wines under olive trees. Each glass tells the story of a passionate local winemaker, and each visit leaves a trace on your palate, and in your memory.

Wine tourism at our Roujan gîte: between tradition and terroir

Our estate once formed part of a working wine domaine, and today it welcomes guests eager to reconnect with the land. Wine tourism here means more than tastings, it’s learning about natural winemaking processes, the influence of garrigue herbs on grape profiles, and how volcanic soils shape minerality.

Maison Mia Majorelle helps you to choose your guided visits to independent domaines, private cellar tours, and harvest-season events with the vintners themselves.

Back at the gîte, enjoy pairings of cheese, honey, and charcuterie from the nearby Pézenas market. Each encounter deepens your understanding of the wine, and the region that made it.

You'll return home not just with a few bottles, but with lasting memories, and maybe even new friendships.
