Description:
Description for B&B:
In the late 1800s, the transportation of Minervois wine became possible due to the development of the Canal du Midi and the introduction of railways. This led to the prosperity of vineyard owners, who used their newfound wealth to construct magnificent chateaux and elegant mansions.Our house proudly preserves several exquisite elements from that era. The chai, where the wine was stored, stands as a reminder of the thriving wine industry that was overseen by a lineage of remarkable women.
Marguerite, the mother of the previous owner, played a significant role in managing the wine business.
