What you can expect

Whether you're a discerning connoisseur or a curious wine lover, enjoy a privileged behind-the-scenes experience in the heart of our vineyard. This unique experience invites you to understand our approach, our working methods, and the wine-growing ecosystem that we cultivate with passion, respecting all living things.

Accompanied by your live guide, follow in the footsteps of the winemaker to discover the terroir. As you walk along, observe the vines, the nature of the soil, and the balances that shape each vintage. The tour continues in the cellar, where you will discover the processes of winemaking and the challenges of ageing, balancing tradition with modern precision.
This tour is intentionally exclusive: its content changes according to the season, the progress of work in the vineyard and the cellar, and your specific interests. Each encounter is therefore different, shaped by the wine calendar and our interactions.

The heart of the experience consists of a rare comparative tasting of the Château Fleur de Lisse vintage currently being aged. You will taste the wine directly from one of the amphorae where it slowly develops, then from the tap of a large oak barrel, to understand the influence of the containers on the wine's expression and its future identity.

After this introductory immersion, it's time for a commented tasting of four wines, including Château Fleur de Lisse and Fontfleurie, our Saint-Emilion Grand Crus. The food tasting is accompanied by a gourmet platter consisting of a selection of cured meats and mature cheeses (vegetarian option available on request), for a moment of sharing and conviviality.

A complete sensory experience, combining terroir, expertise, and pleasure, ideal for discovering wine in a different way, up close with those who make it.

Arriving by train? Enjoy a tuk-tuk ride to our vineyard. It's an immediate immersion into the heart of our wine-growing landscapes!
