The Couchepagane vineyard is located on the outskirts of the Belle-Rivière and Lac St-Jean in Métabetchouan-Lac-à-la-Croix. The vineyard mainly cultivates vandal-cliche and adalmiina for their white wine, as well as radisson and stte-croix for their rosé wine. The owners also produce a late harvest wine, perfect to accompany foie pâtés and cheeses. During the harvest, a race is organized every year at the vineyard to raise funds for muscular dystrophy.

The riders travel the enchanting site for 1.5, 3 or 5 kilometers. Otherwise, you can simply take advantage of your stop for a small guided tour of the vineyard or to appreciate the beautiful scenery on the edge of the Belle-Rivière!

Le vignoble Les Vents d’Ange – un incontournable à Saint-Joseph-du-Lac

Valérie, Catherine, Marie-Rose and Alexandra: at the Vignoble Les Vents d'Ange in Saint-Joseph-du-Lac, the wines bear the names of important women in the family of producers. During autumn and harvest, the wine tasting is completed with a self-picking activity of squash and pumpkin.

The Lauzon family owns the Squash Interpretation Centre, on the same agrotourism site as the vineyard, where it is good to walk through the orange fields and fill their wheelbarrow with cucurbits. Recently, there are also brewing craft beers from Quebec! Back home, we savour pumpkin soups and gratins accompanied by wines from the estate. For a successful outing as a couple, the vineyard Les Vents-d'Ange is a must.

The site is one of the only sites to offer a tour tour in Quebec, allowing you to walk the vineyards at your own pace while not missing any explanations on the grape varieties and harvesting techniques. The vineyard Les Pervenches is open only during the summer and until the harvest in the autumn. Also make sure the products are available before you go there for a successful couple outing.
