|
The construction of the present Chateau de Blomac started in 1789 and has been lived in and renovated by various families. Wine is still being made. In the castle there there are now very spacious and comfortable(family) suites, where our guests will stay regally (chambres d'hotes) . The various outbuildings are converted into holiday houses (gites) with the sturdy character of this wine area. We do have a large (7x13 and heated) swimmingpool for all our guests. The estate is ideal for fairylike wedding or anniversary parties. Larger parties could be received for art- and antique arrangements, cooking courses and pastry-workshops. Imagine your own family or theme gatherings and we will make it true in this inspiring setting. And of course we can't ignore it: exciting your taste buds with exquisite wines.

From 1886 to 1928 the real estate belongs to the Gerbaud family. They build the veranda on the south side of the castle and expand the winery. On 30 December 1928 Andre d'Andoque of Seriege (an old Bitteroise family) buys the castle and the area of Blomac, which then stays within the family for more than 80 years. From 1928-1933 he replants the vineyards and plants 200 extra acres, so that the harvest of 1935 is from 400 acres of vineyards. He also modernizes the wine cellar (chai), which still functions. As a result of the French laws of succession and distribution of the estate the extend is reduced from 200 acres to 2 and a half acres of vines. In 1980 new races are introduced and the family specializes in the export of wines.
