\n\t\t\t

From one generation to the next: this is how the history of the LAJONIE vineyards is written. Characters and personalities that have marked each era, shaping a true dynastic epic with the wines of Bergerac and Monbazillac as the common thread, deep in the heart and the soil.<\/p>\n

The story begins in 1880, when the Gueylard family bought the Saint Christophe farm in Bergerac. At the time, it consisted of 6 hectares of land to be used as a farm.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
