Chateau Laulerie is the vineyard run by brother and sister Serge and Catherine Dubard and is well worth a visit.

It’s located on the road towards Ste Foy just about half a kilometre south of St Meard – you’ll see the sign on the left hand side.

Take the road to St Meard and at the junction (Pressoir opposite) turn right. Go through the slow bit where they’ve put in the 30km/hr area and go to the bottom of the hill.

After you’ve taken the left turn, go past the first turn into their place and take the second turn where you’ll see a white gravel path which leads into a courtyard. Ring the bell and someone will come to see you – there’s no need to make an appointment.

You’ll probably be taken to a tasting room on the far side up some stairs. The wine is really good value and if you’re flying you can get them to send it to you – here’s a link with further information:
