In this special place, the pared-down dining room opens onto the magnificent vineyard. Here, preserving biodiversity is a priority and every effort is made to respect the natural environment. In line with this ethos, chef David Charrier concocts wholesome food by drawing on perfectly mastered techniques. His preparations are precise; his dishes highlight produce from the estate and rigorously selected small-scale producers. The chef is capable of elevating a simple bouchot mussel with a fine seafood jelly with saffron, chanterelles, a chiffonade of Mexican tarragon and a shiny mouclade sauce: an incredible feat! The service fosters a certain joie de vivre and the wine list allows you to indulge without breaking the bank.
