They created &#8220;Les Vignerons R\u00e9unis de Mons\u00e9gur&#8221; Cooperative. Almost a century later, there are more than 90 members of the cooperative, all of whom carry the same spirit of solidarity and tenacity of their predecessors.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_btn title=&#8221;MORE&#8221; style=&#8221;classic&#8221; shape=&#8221;square&#8221; color=&#8221;black&#8221; align=&#8221;center&#8221; custom_onclick=&#8221;true&#8221; custom_onclick_code=&#8221;$(&#8220;#histoireplus&#8220;).slideToggle();&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][vc_column offset=&#8221;vc_col-lg-6 vc_col-md-6 vc_col-xs-12&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;723&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row el_id=&#8221;histoireplus&#8221; el_class=&#8221;contenutexte&#8221;][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">El\u00e9onore of Provence: Her Indulgence<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">In the 13th century, Eleanor of Provence, wife of Henry III Plantagenet, King of England and Duke of Aquitaine, founded the fortified town of Mons\u00e9gur. They enjoyed the region and its gastronomic specialties, which stimulated the development of viticulture. El\u00e9onore above all appreciated a town where, after long travels, she could indulge in good wine and excellent food.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">1929-\u00ad1934 : Necessity<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">In the early 1930s, the wine crisis forced small winegrowers to think about an alternative solution. The world crisis of 1929 brought about a fall in prices and the latest harvests, disappointing in quality and quantity, forced winemakers to embrace the importance of change and to evolve their practices towards more scientific and technical methods of vineyard maintenance. It was therefore vital for small growers to regroup in order to finance these changes and to restructure the vineyard to improve quality.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">1936\u00a0: Development<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">On May 12<sup>th<\/sup>, 1935, a market day in Mons\u00e9gur, a handful of wine-growers gathered at the Caf\u00e9 du Commerce and accepted the challenge of working together. The following year, these fifteen winegrowers created &#8220;Les Vignerons R\u00e9unis de Mons\u00e9gur&#8221; Cooperative and produced their first harvest. Thanks to the qualitative and economic success, other wine growers quickly joined this group.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">1975 &#8211; 2009 :\u00a0Constant Investment<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Technical improvement and investment\u00a0:\u00a0 thermoregulated stainless steel tanks, pneumatic presses, oak barrels.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">2009 : Controlling Destiny<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Like all the cooperative cellars, Mons\u00e9gur&#8217;s cellar has until now exclusively produced wines intended to be sold &#8220;in bulk&#8221;
