Modernization work has been undertaken since its acquisition in 2011, in order to remain one of the jewels of the Bandol vineyard.

The vineyard: We perpetuate a traditional culture with manual harvesting.
The land is plowed without herbicides or synthetic fertilizers.
These vines are pruned and fruited to leave only one bunch per shoot expressing its full essence.
We have one of the finest collections of Old Vintages dating from 1979 onwards.
Wine bar - new! Wine by the glass / charcuterie and cheese platter.
