The history of the estate Les 5 Chemins began in 1864. The vineyard of the domain was then attached to the Château de la Sénaigerie. At the time, this castle founded the first grape harvesting center in the region. The winegrowers of the area brought their grapes by boat via the river Acheneau to the press of the castle. Since then, it has specialized in the elaboration of quality wines and now certified in organic farming.
