PIERRE JEAN VILLA CONDRIEU JARDIN SUSPENDU
After World War II, the terraces overlooking the estate were used to grow vegetables. Indeed, new potatoes, peas, and other seasonal produce preciously graced these slopes. These hanging gardens (jardins suspendus) were extremely sought after due to their exposition (facing directly south). Indeed, this location produces early vegetables, boasting a high standard of quality.
