Comment

Little by little, the castle loses its superb while several families follow one another. In 1994 Bernard Barthe (businessman of the cereal industry) became the owner of the castle who experienced a renewal and important investments in both vines and in the cellar, then was sold in 2004 to Mau and Dirkzwager families. Jean Christophe Mau propelled in the 2000s the Brown Castle in the Great Court, by seducing criticism of the international press.
