RESTAURANTS

 

The restaurant "La Grand'Vigne"
"La Grand'Vigne" was inspired by 18th century orangeries. Its beautiful terrace overlooks a pond at the foot of vine-covered slope. La Grand'Vigne is a feast for the eyes as well as the palate. You can enjoy a tête à tête in front of the fireplace, or hold a meeting in a private seminar room.

The country inn "La Table du Lavoir"
"La Table du Lavoir" is a true country inn where grape pickers originally came to wash their clothing in the 19th century. The magnificent old-fashioned hall was rebuilt stone by stone, and is authentic up to the rediscovered laundry beaters on which the menus are now posted.
