We left Carcassonne fairly early and followed the canal du midi again for a short while before finding the Minervois wine region. Vineyards dominate the countryside which is quite hilly. We definitely used the lower gears today and the chain didn’t come off once! Last year we had chronic chain loss issues but I think now George managed to get
the adjustment correct. The weather was a bit unstable here but we only had a few drops land on us.Minerve is a beautiful little village at the junction of two large canyons. There is a stunning pont (bridge) just as you come into the town (see photo). It was drizzly the remainder of the day so we didn’t get up to very much, I think tomorrow will be better and we can do some exploring.
Looking cold with the bridge over to Minerve behind.
