After one year of work, the time has come for the harvest. A moment that everyone can agree on. We come face to face with the vine. We create connections. We select the bunches. We harvest the ripe grapes by hand. It’s physical, but relieves stress. An enriching and unforgettable experience. Warmth, good spirits and, above all else, reflection reign over the rows.
Do you want to step into the shoes of a grape picker for a few hours? We will be happy to welcome you to the vineyard to live this experience in our beautiful estate. Places are limited, register by signing up using the Registration Form

“When the blackbird sees the grape harvesters enter the vines, he is especially surprised to see that they do not share his fear of the scarecrow” — Jules Renard
