Additional Info
"The Clos de l’Allée is a place with a rich history; its 2.3 uninterrupted hectares are enclosed by paths which were the borders of three seigneuries (feudal lordships) in the 18th century. The Cassini maps listed 75 owners at the time. The Clos is adjacent to the winery and is the historical cradle of the Luneau family."
