Château Capion stands at the center of a wine estate in the Hérault region, with origins dating back to the 16th century and a north wing added in the 19th century. The property has passed through several families over the centuries, from wine merchants to farmers, before becoming an organic vineyard. Visitors come as much for the building itself as for the surrounding vines and locally classified wines.
