Wonderful hour and a bit spent learning wine making process. Highly recommended
Learnt about grape growing, what defines a big vineyard, machines used and holding tanks used for fermentation etc. Saw a video on how oak barrels are made, costs etc and then tasted wine from 2015 to 2020. It's a small vineyard of 50 acres of vines with 120000 bottles produces, but its running a long long time

This small estate in Fours, 5 km north of Blaye, offers a very informative visit by the passionate owner, which can be rounded off by a rural picnic with wines from the estate, homemade pâtés, cheeses and a dessert. A very nice visit where we can learn a lot about the vines, the winemaking processes, the importance of barrels, the effects of the weather and the chemical processes of winemaking. In addition to the cultural aspect, it is a good time to exchange ideas with these winemakers whose efforts and trials often make their lives difficult to imagine so that we can drink quality wines. Thank you very much

We came in April during the open house. We were perfectly welcomed by the owner, who took the time to share her passion with us and explain the history of this estate. It was a real pleasure to share this moment. The value for money of this wine is incredible, it is worth the detour!
