Today, the estate is managed by his five daughters, who continue the tradition of crafting exceptional wines.

Wedding service providers, we had the pleasure of working at the Château du Taillan for the wedding of S & JB. This enchanting place transports you to another time... The setting is both sumptuous and grandiose, perfect for your secular ceremony and your cocktail party. Its reception rooms are atypical and add a unique touch to your event.

We participated in a Les Clefs de la Cave activity at Château du Taillan with our outstanding guide Ludivine. She is an excellent popularizer of the entire production process and very friendly. She also guided us very well during our tasting and pairing of the main excellent wines produced by the Château. In addition, the Château is easily accessible by public transport from Bordeaux. Visit highly recommended!

this chateau i visited in July 2022, very historical in nature. However, the chateau has changed in times and progressed with new equipment to make the vineries. More recently, more white wines were produced than yesteryears.

Went over the weekend to Chateau de Taillan for our group’s first ever wine tour/tasting, not really knowing what to expect. It was an amazing experience! Our guide, Sophie, was absolutely incredible and provided us with an unforgettable memory of our time in Bordeaux. Bravo Sophie! The wine and property were lovely, the price right, and really made our trip.
