Berrye Fortress
Nestled in Berrie, at the border of Anjou, Poitou, and Touraine, the Fortress of Berrye is an extraordinary place where heritage and winemaking are intimately intertwined. Listed in its entirety as a Historic Monument, this medieval fortress has overlooked its vineyards since the 12th century. Built on a rocky outcrop and surrounded by dry moats, it also houses an extensive network of underground tunnels, cellars, and cave dwellings.
Vines have been cultivated in Berrie for over 800 years. Today, the Forteresse de Berrye vineyard spans 13 hectares around the medieval structure.
