Day 6 - Occitanie Sud de France : winegrower for a day and dream stay at Château de Mercuès

Today, the two bloggers took part in the grape harvest and were able to put themselves in the shoes of a winemaker. The work of a winegrwoer is difficult and this activity allowed them to appreciate the knowledge and expertise of the extraordinary men and women who produce wine.

After lunch, they performed a tasting challenge testing the following senses: smell, touch and hearing. This challenge allowed them to taste delicious wines in a fun and surprising way.

For the evening, Stephanie and Benoit settled at the Château de Mercuès. This castle with eight centuries of existence is full of secrets. Located on a rocky promontory, it offers a breathtaking view. The guest bloggers were able to meet in this incredible atmosphere linking the wonders of history to gastronomy for a challenge that everyone wants to experience: a dinner with the chef of a starred restaurant. A great Malbec wine from Cahors and exquisite dishes are definitely on the menu! This beautiful busy day ended with a peaceful night in the cozy rooms of this castle.
