The name of the property comes from the Bizard
family who owned the place in the 16th and 17th century. Before vines were
planted at the fields the owners earned their living by producing silk and you
can still see very old mulberry trees at the estate.
In 1862 the first vines at the
estate were planted by the great great grandfather
of the owner today.
In 1980 when Mark Lepine took over
the property the buildings were in some disrepair and only 3 ha of the land were
cultivated. Today the vineyards cover 16 ha with a
potential of 42 ha. The first bottling at the property
since Lépin took over took place in 2003.
