Yet in Algeria

Quite naturally, Edouard crossed the Mediterranean sea and went through Algeria, territory where the vineyard began to prosper. The history does not say why and how, he stopped in the small farm of Sainte Marguerite in Rivoli near Mostaganem, surely to buy the harvest still on feet. This practice was common and procured financing to the wine growers newly installed to pay their plantations. Sainte Marguerite, farm of the name of Henri Bories's 4th child, further to the promise summit to the Lord if he would dare give him a girl after 3 boys.

This girl, it was Marguerite Bories called to become Miss Edouard Margnat and the mother of Paul, Robert, Jean (died in the age of 18 years) and Jacques Margnat. Call it fate or hand of God, as you will, for sure a miracle that gathered the Margnat family and the Bories family to allow them to live a legend which is going to last more than 100 years. In all case, Edouard Margnat is seduced by the three robust strapping lads who managed the estate as well as by the small 8-year-old girl, Marguerite who made to him doubtless this day her most beautiful smile. So Edouard joined with the family Bories with a financial role. The objective being to create vineyards. Ten years later he married Marguerite. The suite saw the plantation of 3000 acres of magnificent vineyards, all in Oranie.
