The magnificent winery is registered as National Historical Monument. Designed and built in 1771, it can accomodate a harvest of 150 hectares (370 acres).
Specially-equipped forklifts are used for the gravity transfer of the grapes into the tanks. The Gamay Noir is vinified in the traditional manner and thermo-regulated after approximately two weeks of maceration, depending on the cuvée. At the end of the alcoholic fermentation, the must is pressed using a pneumatic horizontal press and a high performance vertical press. The free run and the press wine are carefully transferred to the cellar, again a gravity operation, to continue the wine-making process.
