Six centuries an old history ! Abbey in 16th century, the Manor became a stronghold in 1403, held by noble Pierre de Gland, vassal of the duke of Savoy and prince of Vaud. During the following centuries, many country lords and Bernese baillifs lived in these old walls.

On 1960, Alfred Oulevay (a senior member of the Council of State) and his friend René Geissmann bought the Manor and created the limited company Cofigo, the present owner.The Manor covers two appellations with its 24 hectares of vineyards : 16 hectares produce Côtes de l’Orbe and 8 Bonvillars appellation.

In the Côtes de l’Orbe, the Gamay found a perfectly appropriate ground. In appellation Bonvillars, a little lighter ground, similar to banks very close to the Neuchâtel Lake, incited the wine growers to cultivate Pinot Noir, the specific vine of this area.
