Join us for a unique event in the Bordeaux winegrowing region, where you can taste our red and white wines in their raw and authentic state as they mature. This event offers a hands-on experience that showcases the art of winemaking.

During the "IN VINO" tasting, you will receive a guided tour of our estate, learning about vineyard management and the manual harvesting process. You will gain insight into the various aging methods we use at Château Jouvente, which help shape the character of our wines and meet our quality expectations.

As part of the tasting, you will sample four wines currently in the aging process—both red and white—directly from vats and barrels, including same-barrel vinification. This is a rare opportunity to taste wines at different stages of development.

To conclude the experience, you will have the chance to taste our mature and recent vintages, showcasing the evolution of our cuvées over time. This event is perfect for wine enthusiasts looking to deepen their understanding of Bordeaux wines and the winemaking process.

A quick stop at Château Jouvente, thanks for the tasting and all these explanations from Mr. Bernardet. I think we'll see each other again very soon.

Excellent Very pleasant and warm welcome, we toured the entire area. What we did with our 5 and 8 year old daughters. They really appreciated this discovery in a fun way, a very good idea for this treasure hunt and to finish with an excellent tasting! Thank you for this moment of relaxation and discovery. Don't miss it!

A warm welcome. Simple and very interesting explanation of the wines tasted. We had a great time. The red wines are excellent, as is the Sauterne, which is very good. The wines are quite expensive, however.

Came for a wine tasting with friends. The person who welcomed us was very pleasant, with very in-depth knowledge in his field, both in the method of making wine and the way of putting into words what you have in your mouth. We were able to taste all the vintages, even the most prestigious, which not all estates necessarily do. The price seemed slightly expensive to us. But the quality of the wine and the work provided are impeccable. Thank you for this welcome.

We came for a wine tasting. The person who runs the property and welcomed us was incredible. She shared her passion for wine and taught us a lot about its production and its taste, aromas, and sensations in the mouth. We had a really pleasant time and tasted some very good things, including some from the best vintages, which isn't the case at all wineries. The wines are of high quality. The only downside for us is the price, which we still found a bit high. Thank you for this pleasant moment.

The kindness of the owner. A lovely guy who did the tasting in Spanish (difficult here). He was very kind and the wine was delicious. Totally recommended.

We were recommended the wine tour at Chateau Jouvente, and we were so happy we did it! Benjamin was a fantastic host, explained everything in English for us and let us taste so many different wines. Great tour, great wine and great host, thank you Benjamin. We wish you and your family every success for the future!
