DOMAINE BARTHÉLEMY

Winery

A typical old Béarnaise house seduced the Tessier family in 1993. They bought it and updated the whole thing. It was the start of an exceptional adventure: the buildings were restored, the vines replanted, the winery modernized... Today, the vines, which are twenty years old, are in full production on 6.5 hectares of clayey soil (pebbles, puddings) planted with 70% small manseng and 30% large manseng which give birth to four wines. This is an invitation to discover an authentic 18th century Béarnaise house with its adorable dovecote and pebble-walled inner courtyard. A charming stopover, so to speak, for lovers of old stones and naturally for oenophiles wishing to immerse themselves in a property to discover its nectar. A form of oenotourism was thus born in this small family estate! Of note are the labels signed by Titouan Lamazou, the artist navigator, notably that of the Cuvée Saint-Barth, a dry and mellow wine.
