Château les Bouysses, Medieval castle in Mercuès, France
The estate spreads across 48 hectares, divided equally between vineyards and hazelnut orchards in the Lot department of southwestern France.
The land of Les Bouysses was given to Dame Guillemette in 1232 by Lord Raymond de Lard to establish a Cistercian priory.
The castle cellars display medieval architecture while the main residence incorporates Italian influences from the 18th century.
The reception hall spans 145 square meters with oak flooring and accommodates up to 200 guests for various events.
The nuns of Leyme allowed their chapel to be demolished in 1745 to make way for a wine cellar, marking a shift toward wine production.
