Pauillac is what most of the world thinks of when it thinks Bordeaux: Cabernet Sauvignon driven, powerful and age worthy, often expensive, wine, produced in beautiful classic chateaux. Why so iconic? Because it is here that three out of the five First Classified Growths of the left bank are to be found: Château Latour, Château Lafite Rothschild and Château Mouton Rothschild.
Head to Château Pichon Baron, second classified growth, for a Master Class tasting, after a tour in the vineyards, the château will open its private tasting rooms for a vertical tasting of the vintage 2016 and 2014, 5 wines tasted. An exclusive wine tour, subject to availability.
Lunch at la Maison D'estournel, located in Saint Estèphe. It is a country home where the living is easy. An experience all its own ensuring a simple and authentic stay in the heart of nature. A luxury gastronomic experience.
The chef of the hotel’s restaurant pays tribute to the treasures of this generous terroir with local seasonal cuisine, modernized with a view to maximizing lightness and simplicity.
In the afternoon enjoy a private tour at the Château Gruaud Larose, a Second Grand Cru Classé, located in Saint Julien.
Since its creation, in 1725, four families have succeeded one another at the head of Gruaud Larose: the Gruaud & Larose families, the Balguerie and Sarget families, the Cordier family and the Merlaut family.
