About this experience & host

To tell you about and share our wines, we wanted through this visit, to give you access to a key moment in the construction of a vintage: the blending. We start by taking a sample of the wine en primeur, blended, from the barrels together, then a sample of the wine of each non-blended variety that we have matured in barrels separately. Then, in the heart of our barrel cellar, we taste them, 1 by 1, with their berries, to compare the richness and contribution of each. You will thus know why Bordeaux is so attached to the blending of several grape varieties in its wines. Then, we go to the Wine Bar to taste 3 other vintages around a local plate; we continue with a lovely thirst-quenching wine, our rosé, Les Roses de Marie, then with noGGIN, a spirit drink reflecting the freshness of the garden; both are made from grapes grown on our land. An experience rich in information and flavors.

One of the most interesting and informative cellar door experiences we have ever had, across a number of countries. Highly recommend - and the wine was so interesting that we are having some shipped to New Zealand. An inspiring experience.

Superb experience!!! The owner is a passionate who will make you discover the operation of his exploitation of the vine until the realization of their wine through several tastings.

An enriching experience in the company of the owner of the estate, Michel Marengo. Everything is perfectly explained and the tasting went very well. I recommend this family estate!
