Winemaking Traditions Museum

The Musée des Traditions Vigneronne was born of the Caveau Bugiste's desire to preserve the memory of the gestures and skills of yesteryear. The exhibits come from the Caveau's own research, as well as from a personal collection built up over more than 20 years by Jean-Pierre Melin, an equally enthusiastic Bugiste.

- Fossous, départoirs and échaudeuses recall the patient stages leading up to the grape's blossoming.
- Rassiots, gauges and presses illustrate the skilful winemaking process.
- Verdondaines, jabloirs and dolloires evoke the perfect mastery of the cooper.

Many of these objects date from the 18th century, and some are rare and even unique.

Au Caveau Bugiste :
- Museum of stone tools
- Collection of corkscrews (over 800) and liqueur glasses (over 500)
- Vinorama “Tourism, Viticulture and Gastronomy in the Land of Brillat Savarin”: documentary presenting the Ain, Bugey, its history, vineyards, gastronomy, vine cultivation, vinification of different grape varieties, distillation and aging of spirits.
- Temporary painting and sculpture exhibitions.
- Tasting of wines from the cellar and local products (terrines, honeys, jams, oils, cookies, sausages, etc.).

From 2 January to 31 December, open every day from 9am to 6pm

Free of charge.
