Un lieu enchanteur qui pour nous détendre après les longues journées de labeur.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Il n’y avait aucune construction sur le vignoble et les raisins étaient tristement destinés à la coopérative. Nous avons depuis, transformé la moitié des vignes en système Royat, changé les espaliers et les fils releveurs sur la quasi-totalité du vignoble, construit un hangar et entrepris la construction d’un chai avec sa salle de barriques et salle de dégustations. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Il reste à terminer la construction des bureaux et loft et réaliser des  « villas » -gîtes sur le vignoble. Celui ci étant très proche de toutes les commodités et juste à quelques minutes de la Cité de Carcassonne&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Superficie totale des vignes : environ 17ha de vignes d’environ 28 ans d’âge :&lt;br /&gt;3ha 66 de Syrah&lt;br /&gt;4ha 40 de Merlot  &lt;br /&gt;7ha 30 de Cabernet Sauvignon dont 2 ha sont plus jeunes (10 ans)&lt;br /&gt;1ha 90 de Chasan &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Rendements:&lt;br /&gt;entre environ 25hl/ha à 37hl/ha &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Gamme et Tarif au chai  de nos vins 2005    &lt;br /&gt;Proprietor’s Reserve    &lt;br /&gt;28€     &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Les Américains     &lt;br /&gt;Trah Lah Lah   &lt;br /&gt;18€     &lt;br /&gt;    &lt;br /&gt;O’Syrah    &lt;br /&gt;15€&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Podium non renouvelé  &lt;br /&gt;12€          &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mediterranean Mojo&lt;br /&gt;7€</content><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.ovineyards.com/public_html/joeblog/2008/06/la-passion-du-vin.html' title='La Passion du Vin'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7713854904725446373&amp;postID=3679997319018542106' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.ovineyards.com/public_html/joeblog/atom.xml' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7713854904725446373/posts/default/3679997319018542106'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7713854904725446373/posts/default/3679997319018542106'/><author><name>Ryan O'Vineyards</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7713854904725446373.post-2928282087816515269</id><published>2008-04-15T13:12:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-04-15T13:17:58.703-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Ryan is with us at the Vineyard</title><content type='html'>This is the best week in the O'Vineyards routine!
