The Venue History

18th century · Stone maison de maître and former wine estate

The estate is built around an 18th-century maison de maître, set on a south-facing slope among its own vines. A vaulted stone cellar and a former wine press room survive from its working past, and now hold the indoor receptions. Restoration has kept the stone architecture while bringing modern comfort to the guest houses.

Notable Features

  • • Vaulted Cellar (cave Voûtée)
  • • Former Wine Press Room (pressoir)
  • • Stone Facade
  • • South-facing Terraces Over The Vines
