X-SAMPA is a phonetic alphabet that can be used to transcribe the sounds of all (or almost all) languages. I used it for the French pronunciation because it would be hard for me to describe the pronunciation without using phonetic symbols.
[A~dRezj2 buteO~] is how I would pronounce it too. It could be [A~dR2zj2 butO~] but I doubt it.
Here is a link in French.

It's not a well-known town outside of France, so you're probably not going to find a whole lot of information on it that isn't written in French. My suggestion, if you want in-depth information, is to go to the link provided above and use a language translator (like Babelfish) to give you a rough idea of what's being said.
