The Ministère de la Culture's notice

Edifice construit à l'initiative d'une riche famille de négociants céréaliers au début du 19e siècle, dans l'esprit classique de la fin du 18e siècle. Il s'agissait d'une grande exploitation viticole, ruinée par la crise du philloxéra et par la mauvaise gestion de l'un de ses propriétaires.

Building constructed at the initiative of a wealthy family of grain merchants in the early 19th century, in the classical spirit of the end of the 18th century. It was a large wine-growing estate, ruined by the phylloxera crisis and by poor management by one of its owners.
