The town of Cluny was based on the Benedictine monastery (Cluniac Abbey), founded in 910. The abbey was the starting point and center of the Cluniac reform at the beginning of the 10th century. Cluny reached its peak membership at the beginning of the 12th century with approximately 400 monks. The last abbey church (Cluniac 3) was the world's largest Romanesque basilica and, until the construction of today's St. Peter's Basilica in Rome, the largest church in Christendom. The church had seven towers. Although large parts of the building were destroyed, the remaining relics are absolutely remarkable and make a visit to Cluny an unforgettable experience!

In the middle of the vineyards, on a rocky outcrop, stands this impressive Burgundy castle with a 1000-year history. The castle's property is made up of small vineyard plots that are cultivated organically. You can taste our wines: Pouilly-Fuissé, Saint-Véran, Mâcon-Pierreclos and Bourgogne rouge Pinot noir, as well as Burgundy specialties (ratafia, creme de pêche de vigne and creme de cassis) in the shop or in our wine cellars.

Berzé is a family-owned castle, built by the ancestors of the current owners to protect the Abbey of Cluny. It dominates a magnificent panorama over the vineyards of the Solutré valley. Built between the 11th and 15th centuries around its Carolingian chapel, the castle retains its entire defensive system, thirteen towers including two keep, its impressive entrance castle and its medieval halls. This makes it the largest and best preserved fortress in Burgundy. The castle is made up of three ring walls. Each houses various gardens, orchards and vegetable gardens, as well as a French garden with box trees, statues, hornbeams and large yews cut like chess pieces. From the terraces, there is a magnificent view of the Lamartinien valley with its vineyards in the background.
