Archaeology handicrafts and science and technology sites to visit Allier

And if instead of visiting the monuments of the corner, interesting but somewhat dehumanised, you went to meet the actors of the economic life of the Bourbon country? This is what these visits offer, particularly pleasant, and also free of charge. In 2012, to name but a few, you are invited to discover a workshop of the two virtuoso of Saint-Aubin-le-Monial, a farming charolais in bio in Louroux-Bourbonnais, a crystal tailor and a designer at Moulins, a Épuration treatment plant, a arborist climber in Bourbon, a workshop of cooperage at Château-sur-Allier, from market to Château. Vieure and Franchesse, or the heritage house in Veurdre. 

Visit the Caves Bonvin of Cédric and Benoît, winegrowers-pickers. They produce white wines cuvée Aurélie and Réserve de la Sourde, a red cuvée Bourbonnaise, a rosé and a traditional method. The Caves de la Causerie belonging to the Brest family are the oldest wineries in Saint-Pourcinois, and are also the only ones that still do the harvesting by hand and hand-pulling. These manual harvests are the pride of the winery. To be discovered: the red and white oak barrels, the ratafia, the fine d'Auvergne, and the bubbles of the Causerie.
