Description:
Description for B&B:
In the late 1800s, the Minervois wine industry experienced a remarkable transformation with the advent of the Canal du Midi and the introduction of railways, enabling convenient transportation of the wine. As a result, vineyard owners prospered and used their wealth to construct elegant chateaux and grand mansions.Our house proudly preserves several exquisite elements from that era. The chai, where the wine was stored, stands as a testament to the thriving wine trade overseen by a lineage of remarkable women.
Marguerite, the mother of the previous proprietor, played a significant role in managing the wine business.
