The Chateau Thivin is rooted in the terroir
The oldest domain of Mont Brouilly, which was built in the fourteenth century, has received a lot of personalities from the arts and the media as evidenced by the passage of Colette (a famous French novelist) at Castle Thivin during the harvest of 1947:
"La cour couverte résonnait de voix, de roues, de pas lourd-chaussés, car les quarante vendangeurs du domaine descendaient à leur repas, escortés de leur gaillarde et vineuse odeur. J'aurais bien voulu les suivre".
