An estate with a story.A heritage carried forward.

In Pons, France, the stone tower and windmill of Le Clône recall a time when natural power helped sustain daily life and distillation. This place is part of the story of Maison d’Eunobelle.

The Maison also carries forward the legacy of the historic firm N. Barriasson & Cie. From the estate to the workshop, from the work recorded in old photographs to our brands today, we value the people, decisions and time behind a spirit.

Honour time. Savour good company.

An estate beneath the windmill

Here, wind served the estate. By 1902, the windmill at Le Clône was in operation, supplying water for domestic use and distillation. Its tower, wells, basin and machinery preserve a history of natural power and human ingenuity.

On 20 December 2006, the windmill, including its tower, wells, basin and complete mechanism, was listed as a French historic monument.
