Domaine Cartier-Potelle is located in an enchanting site on the south flank of Mont Rougemont. The Domaine is specialized in making high-quality Quebec products, such as apple ciders and wines, you can also go there for apple picking. I went there on a Sunday morning (yes, it's never too early for a drink or two), it was quiet and peaceful, exactly what I needed.
In the lobby, I was welcomed by a young lady who explained to me the different tasting options: 4 wines and ciders at their tasting counter for $5 or the Signature Tasting menu for $25, which comes with the tasting of 5 products and a selection of Quebec cheeses and appetizers. I decided to try their Signature option, and took a seat at their terrace, which offers a breathtaking view of the region. The menu was perfect, each product was well explained to me and well-paired.
Then, I went for a walk in the orchards of the estate and relaxed in their colorful chairs. It was a very nice experience, I will return for sure. read more
