At the beginning of the previous century, a small terroir produced a wine that was said to be of very high quality, "Le vin de Thézac-Perricard".
This wine was so appreciated that it seduced many other connoisseurs such as Napoleon III and President Fallières.
The latter, a fervent defender of regional gastronomy, regularly offered it to his guests.
Among them was Tsar Nicholas II of Russia, who was won over by this wine and immediately placed a large order for it.
This news had such a great impact that the wine was called the Tsar's Wine, which attracted the greatest gastronomic critics.
In 1980, a handful of passionate men, the Vignerons de Thézac-Perricard, revived this vineyard on the rocky soil that is the plateau of the Causses.
Today, they are proud and happy to present you their prestigious range of wines, suitable to be enthroned on your table.e current range includes three rosé wines, three white wines and four traditional red wines, selected or aged in oak barrels, as well as a collection of gift boxes.
Cow-drawn carriage rides, tours of the winery and scooter excursions are also available.
The winery is open Monday afternoon from 2 to 6 pm.
Tuesday to Saturday from 9:15 am to 12 am and from 2 pm to 6 pm.
In July and August, we close at 7pm instead of 6pm.
