With two rivers running through it, the Herault and the winery's namesake, the Dourbie, this Languedoc property, due west of Montpellier, is not only a tourist's delight, with manicured shrubs lining the driveway to its 18th century chateau, it's also been a fully organic farm since 2009, hand-harvesting from very old vines and fermenting with indigenous yeasts.
