It was Jacques Ravonneaux who, in the 1980s, took over his uncle's small brewery business, leaving his job at Solvay. The small warehouse hidden behind the church has metamorphosed into a giant showcase since 2010 on more than 2,400 m2, not counting the shelving. Impossible to miss it, facing the airport, along the RN 73 between Tavaux and Dole. The Ravonneaux family has become one of the greatest French beer specialists. More than 1,300 references for sale! An impulse that we owe to Janine, the sister, but above all to Claude, both of whom disappeared too soon. Claude was nicknamed "the Pope of Beer"! The store's 400 m2 are divided into thematic modules: glassware (including beer bottles), party items, alcoholic beverages, whisky and rum cellar, wine cellar. The loose tea and coffee space tickles the nostrils as soon as you cross the threshold. The evenings come alive with tastings discovered during the year. The open house in April is always popular with both professionals and private individuals.
Members' reviews on LA CAVE RAVONNEAUX
Nous avons acheté plusieurs types de boisson pour notre mariage chez Ravonneaux (vin blanc, eau plate, eau pétillante, limonade et champagne). Il est difficile de "calculer" le nombre de bouteilles requises, on s'était renseigné sur des sites et quand on a évoqué ces chiffres en arrivant chez Ravonneaux, la vendeuse nous a dit que l'on prévoyait trop. On a été agréablement surpris de l'honnêteté de ne pas chercher à nous vendre le maximum de bouteilles !
De plus, nous avions la sérénité de pouvoir rapporter les bouteilles non ouvertes (reprise de bouteille à l'unité en non au carton comme on a pu l'avoir ailleurs).
Et leurs calculs étaient nickels puisqu'il y avait pile poil ce qu'il fallait (ni trop, ni pas assez) !
