We understand that Baron Bertrand De Lassus, who created this magical place, was a lover of the Pyrenees! <br>A Pyreneist at heart, his first ascent was Mount Sacon, a modest hill overlooking Montr\u00e9jeau. Later, he would travel the Pyrenees in every direction.<br>The marble stables are counted among the most beautiful in France. In the tack room, the smell of leather plunges us back into history.

The combination of these two expertises allowed him to design chocolates that are perfectly reasonable to succumb to.

Now that your conscience is clear, time for pleasure!
