En un regard
Le château en bref
Château Capion, in Aniane (Hérault), was built in the sixteenth century and substantially renovated in the nineteenth century, when a north wing was added, turning it into a viticultural folly with, notably, a horseshoe staircase, cellars and stables. It successively belonged to the Keittinger family (from 1873), the Wormser family (from 1900, several members of which were deported to Auschwitz in 1944), the Salasc family (1960s), Bürher (1996, who redesigned the formal French gardens), and then Oleg Chirkunov, who converted the vineyard to organic farming in 2016. Since 2023, the estate has been run by Francis Ingrand and Sandrine Tannière. It produces wine and offers a tasting room as well as venues for professional and private events.
