🏰 The Domaine: Since 1994, with passion and dedication, the Feray family has successfully preserved and enhanced this château, making it one of the remarkable historical sites in the Loire Valley. The vineyard, one of the oldest in Touraine, is now ranked among the most prestigious wine estates in the Loire Valley. The estate spans 130 hectares across the hillside and the valley.
🤓: Partially burned during the French Revolution, the building was restored; then, in 1846, the Touraine writer Honoré de Balzac wished to acquire it, desiring in vain to live there with his ardent admirer and wife, Evelyne Hanska.
On June 10, 1846, he wrote to his wife, and in this letter, the famous phrase could be read: 'Moncontour is my predilection.'
