Château Mercier
A few kilometers from the Citadel of Bourg, Château Mercier is a 25-hectare wine estate, owned by the Chéty family for thirteen generations. Philippe and Martine welcome you with their children, Isabelle and Christophe, in front of their winegrower's house which also includes two guest rooms and a gîte.
Faithful to the tradition and know-how passed down from their predecessors, the Chéty family has chosen sustainable agriculture for their vineyard. In the vineyards where she invites you to follow her, note the presence of a small weather station and an insect counting device whose usefulness she explains to you. The different stages of traditional winemaking are explained to you in the cellar. When tasting Château Mercier wines, you understand why the Chétys say they are proud to be “peasant winegrowers”.
