Gault&Millau's review 2026

Listed as an industrial heritage site, this magnificent complex is now an exceptional estate, a 5-star luxury hotel, and one of the finest destinations in the area. To delight its guests, the cathedral-like wine cellar houses a gourmet restaurant dedicated to regional cuisine, where the ingredients showcase the full richness of the Charentes region. The meal begins with an egg and hay-infused potato espuma, onion compote, and Sturia caviar, before moving on to the main course: Royan-style line-caught whiting cooked at a low temperature, served with arugula purée and a beurre blanc sauce with smoked fish roe. The meal continues with a beautifully roasted Pompaire pigeon, green asparagus, black garlic sauce, and vine mushroom jus, and concludes with Ciflorette strawberries, Ribot cream, tart, sorbet, and garden lemon balm. Menus range from €80 to €160.
