Exclusive - between Béziers and Saint-Chinian Exceptional Wine Estate in the Heart of Languedoc

Property Description

Nestled in the heart of France's largest vineyard, this historic wine estate is a true gem. Built in 1830 by the Duke of Gascony as a hunting lodge, the château, imbued with elegance and nobility, has been expanded over the decades to become this majestic building of character, surrounded by its stone-walled park and numerous outbuildings. The château: With a living space of 521 m², this mansion seduces with its refined architecture and carefully preserved period features: glazed tile roof, monumental stone staircase, marble fireplaces, French parquet floors, mosaic floors, and even a chapel integrated into the house. It includes 2 reception rooms, 11 bedrooms, 5 bathrooms, and a vast basement converted into a cellar, ideal for wine enthusiasts or lovers of places steeped in history. The outbuildings: Three independent dwellings of 95 m², 95 m² and 70 m² complete the complex two are currently rented out year-round, the third used as a seasonal gîte. The former hunters' room, the former stables and a former winemaking cellar of 660 m² on the ground reinforce the unique character of this property. The vineyard: The estate extends over approximately 56 ha in one piece, including: 44.8 ha of vines in production, 4 ha uprooted to replant, 7 ha of land and park. The 30-hectare vineyard, fully irrigated, is planted with red and white grape varieties: Merlot, Carignan, Grenache, Syrah, Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Sauvignon, and Chardonnay. The wines are produced under the Igp Pays d'Oc appellation, with the Chardonnays in white and the Cabernet Sauvignon in red. The harvest is currently delivered to a cooperative winery, but the on-site facilities would allow for the revival of winemaking activities in a private cellar. A rare location, combining architectural prestige, a privileged natural setting, and a complete wine production tool. The whole offers a perfect balance between a charming residence, rental income, and wine-growing potential. Complete file on request. A unique opportunity for an enlightened amateur or a large-scale project.
