About the manufacturer

Поместье Noellat было основано в 19-м веке Феликсом Ноэлла. Мишель, правнук Феликса, высадил собственные виноградники и стал заниматься выращиванием винограда. В 1980 году он построил сводчатый погреб и, шутки ради, камни для этого подвала взял со старой тюрьмы в Боне. В 1989 году, после смерти Мишеля, его дети, Alain и Jean-Marc, основали винодельческое хозяйство Domaine Michel Noellat et fils.
