BIRTHDAY CELEBRATIONS



Le Domaine la Louviere celebrates its 25th birthday with the staging of a special apéritif musical! Come and see The AudeShantyMen, on the 9 August 2018.

Domaine la Louvière is inseparably associated with the wolf. According to folklore, wolves gathered on the foothills of the Pyrenees in the south of France to survey the countryside and pick up the scent for the hunt. Their vineyards now flourish on one of these ancient gathering sites for wolves.

CREW HOISTED UP TO NINE


A great sound was heard in Villelongue d'Aude and across the valley on the evening of 5 July 2018 when the largest crew of 9 shantymen performed to an enthusiastic audience.

With the weather holding fair, several new pieces were trialled with success as well as some of the all time favourites.

Entry to the concert was free with the hat being passed around to collect donations to the French lifeboat association. The performance raised €317,80 - including a generous donation from the management of the Villelongue bar - for the Société Nationale de Sauvetage en Mer. A great night all round !
