Step into a living piece of history with a visit to this pre-phylloxera vineyard, over 150 years old. Nestled in sandy soils, these resilient vines survived the devastating Phylloxera crisis that ravaged European vineyards in the late 19th century. The dedicated owners, who have been winegrowers for generations, have safeguarded this unique parcel, preserving traditional methods that have largely vanished.
Designated as a Historical Monument since 2012, this vineyard showcases the rich biodiversity of the Pyrenean foothills, making it a must-see for wine enthusiasts and history buffs alike.
During your visit, a knowledgeable guide will lead you to the Saint-Mont Monastery, where you will enjoy a tasting of three exclusive wines, each a product of Plaimont’s extensive ampelographic research. Among these selections, you will have the rare opportunity to sample a wine crafted from pre-phylloxera vines, a true representation of Saint Mont’s remarkable genetic heritage.
This 1 ½ hour guided tour is available in French, English, and Spanish, and requires advance booking. Don’t miss the chance to experience the rich history and exceptional wines at Domaine Plaimont.

It's a good winery; it loads quickly, but sometimes you have to wait more than an hour for documents. There are showers and restrooms. The staff is friendly, and you can park on site. There's a company shop with tastings nearby. Have a good day.
