History
The origin of the estate dates back to the middle of the 18th century. Divided in 1845, it was reconstituted in 1931. Of rectangular form, the château rises over two storeys with an additional roof space level. It is of classical style with, on the main elevations, two median bays. A square tower of three storeys rises to the north-west of the château around which are organised numerous wine-producing buildings.
