The presence of vines in Valenciennes dates back to the Gallo-Roman era. In 1362, this vineyard produced "19 muyds" or about 43 hectolitres. The replanted vines from 1998 gave in 2018 12,880 hectolitres, volume that allows us to produce today three exceptional vintages entirely made by people with disabilities.
You will have the opportunity to visit our cellar as well as the vineyard located 20 minutes walk and accessible by car.
Duration of the visit: about 30 minutes Last departure: 17:30.
