Visit to the truffle farm
Our truffle farm has been in organic farming certified by ecocert since November 2012.
It is a 5 hectare truffle plantation comprising 1600 trees of various species.
The plantation was started in 1998 by our predecessors M. & Ms ALLEGRET,
and was completed in 2002, while retaining some old productive trees
as well as the vine stocks present.
The spirit of the plantation was to restore as much of a natural environment as possible by favoring native plant species, avoiding weedkillers and phytosanitary products in order to find natural conditions favoring the scent of truffles.
Le projet de faire des truffes de qualité est maintenant abouti avec la certification bio. D'ailleurs cette partie du Périgord Noir est réputée pour produire des truffes très parfumées. Tout cela permet donc de vous offrir des truffes d'une très grande qualité afin de vous procurer un véritable plaisir gustatif.
