Domaine du Météore

Organic Languedoc Wine Grown Within and Around a Meteor Crater

Domaine du Météore is an organic vineyard located in the wild and mountainous Haut-Languedoc regional park in South West France. With minimal intervention, our range of organic wines truly give a sense of place, expressing both terroir and our unique astronomical history. Our vines grow in and around a 10,000 year old meteorite crater which lies at the heart of our domaine. Recent scientific analysis has demonstrated the impact resulted in cosmic dust and formation of nano-diamonds dispersed across our plots, giving credence to our claim to make truly cosmic wines.

We offer five reds, two whites, a rosé and a sparkling ‘méthode traditionelle’ rosé, noted for their complex flavour profiles and distinctive minerality. Our Léonides Rouge was recently rated as ‘Wine of the Year’ by the Mail on Sunday, as well as among the 10 best expressions of terroir in Southern France and the best value for money of this selection (Revue du Vin de France). Le Météore rosé is described as ‘dangerously delicious’ by the Editor of Hello! Magazine, the perfect way to welcome in summer and put stardust back in your glass, while our new Le Cratère sparkling ‘méthode traditionelle’ is unique in being made entirely from grapes grown solely within the crater.

Directory Offer: A bottle of Le Cratère ‘méthode traditionelle’ sparkling rosé worth £30 for orders over £150 using the code DIRECTORY.

Jessica Cooper Draws

Artist and Illustrator

I have always had a passion for art and illustration and have worked on many creative commissions. I tend to be drawn to the human form although more recently, I’ve also enjoyed drawing animals and landscapes. Most of my work is drawn digitally on my iPad, although I can often be found experimenting with paints and pencils.

I’m also fortunate enough to work as a nanny and I look after two cheeky monkeys. They are incredibly special to me and were instrumental in the making of my website (no joke)! Thank you so much for taking a look at my work, I really appreciate it. I get so much pleasure from drawing and I really hope it gives some joy to you as well. To enquire about commissions, please email or DM me on Instagram.

Directory Offer: 20% off your first order over £200.
