At 33 Avenue du Conseil Général in Neffiès, Domaine Thérèse Rose operates under the name Famille Villaret. Wine is sold directly from the property, with no dedicated tasting room.
Place and vineyards
Where the wines begin
Neffiès places the domaine in the Haut Languedoc wine region. The bottle uses Picpoul de Neffiès as its name. Picpoul de Pinet is a separate AOC within Languedoc for white wines made exclusively from Piquepoul blanc, and Neffiès is outside that formal AOC.
