All the charm of the Hérault wine cooperatives

A wine cooperative represents a group of winegrowers who unite to produce wine under a single entity. Around Cap d’Agde you’ll find the Montagnac wine cooperative as well as the two Richemer cooperatives that produce characterful wines quite typical of the Languedoc region.

Created in 1937, the wine cooperative of Montagnac unites 450 men and women in a wine-growing passion in an exceptionally diverse terroir stretching across 2,700 hectares of vineyards. 

With its two wine cellars, the Montagnac cooperative has become a reference in the wine-making world.

• Find out more on the Terroir d’Art et de Naturetour. The trail features 14 stone statues sculpted by local artists and installed along the way to offer you a mix of wine and art!

The Richemer cellars are the only wine cooperative located by the sea. You’ll find them between the Mediterranean, the Midi Canal and the Thau Lagoon. This geographical location is behind the fresh, elegant notes found in the wines! The cooperative’s 1,000 hectares are planted with typical grape varieties like Terret, Marselan and Piquepoul.

• If you’d like to try them, join one of the tasting sessions that are organised there, as well as cookery workshops. To find out more and enjoy unique panoramic views, you can explore the vineyards by bike with the Mediterranean as your backdrop.
