La Livinière, a Minervois village of wine-growers. Work on the land, the rhythm of seasons, hunting parties and popular dances. “Yes, I enjoy being a countryman, a wine-grower, it’s fine, living in the open air, with the trees and birds, is almost enough to make you a poet.” But the everyday life, the work, lifestyle and way of thinking of this last generation of small farmers will soon be no more than a memory, as times are changing and rural culture is drawing to its end.
