Wonderful wine tasting and overall experience! What a wonderful experience in an absolutely gorgeous setting! The wine was divine but the highlight of our tour and tasting was our lovely tour guide, Camille. She was extremely friendly, knowledgeable and spent extra time with us beyond the allotted booking time. Highly recommend!

Highly enjoyed our time there The Chateau grounds were beautiful and the buildings were interesting, but the most Important thing you want to hear about is the wine. It was spectacular. We are red wine drinkers and loved their reds, but we even loved their white and rose. Our guide was nice and very knowledgeable about the process. We took the D tram out of Bordeaux and then walked for 30 minutes to get to the château but could have taken a bus and walked less or taken an expensive Uber.

Beautiful Cave A professional tour led by a family member was lovely. We particularly liked their custom cement bats embossed with grape clusters, the room of winemaking artifacts used by previous generations and the wine names that spoke to the family history including the cuvée du lion named after our guide’s grandfather.

Inviting family cave Led by the winemaker’s very knowledgeable and friendly sister who runs the business office this tour was entirely customized for our family. She patiently shared her extensive knowledge about winemaking in general and her family’s domaine specifically in a way that was approachable and interesting.
