A REFINED HISTORIC RESIDENCE
At the heart of the estate stands the beautifully restored château, offering approximately 1,300 m² of living space arranged over three levels.

A FULLY EQUIPPED WINE-PRODUCING ESTATE
The estate benefits from an extensive and well-maintained winery, with a total storage capacity of approximately 9,000 hectolitres across concrete and refrigerated stainless-steel tanks.
The facilities include:
Approximately 50 oak barrels
Two enclosed-cage wine presses
Bottling facilities
Wastewater treatment compliant with current standards
Agricultural storage buildings and equipment
Current wine production is approximately 4,000 hectolitres, offering an established operational foundation for a new owner.
98 HECTARES OF VINEYARDS, OLIVE GROVES & LAND
The estate extends across approximately 98 hectares, including 68 hectares grouped together around the château, creating a particularly attractive and cohesive property.
The vineyard covers approximately 66.5 hectares, planted with a diverse selection of grape varieties producing wines under several appellations, including AOC Languedoc, AOC Pézenas, IGP Pays d'Oc and IGP Côtes de Thongue.
Cultivated using reasoned agricultural practices, the vineyards offer potential for conversion to organic production. Approximately 90% benefit from drip irrigation.
The property also includes around 1,000 olive trees currently in production, with scope for further development and replanting.
