What you can expect

  • Whether you are a seasoned connoisseur or a curious foodie, enjoy an exclusive immersion in the heart of our vineyard and its behind-the-scenes operations. This unique experience invites you to understand our approach, our working methods, and the wine-growing ecosystem that we cultivate with passion, while respecting living things.

    Accompanied by your guide, follow in the footsteps of the winemaker to discover the terroir. As you walk along, observe the vines, the nature of the soils and the balances that shape each vintage. The tour continues in the winery, where you will discover the winemaking processes and the challenges of aging, balancing tradition with modern precision.
    This tour is deliberately exclusive: its content changes according to the season, the progress of the work in the vineyard and the winery, and your specific interests. Each visit 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 undergoing ageing. You will taste the wine directly from one of the amphorae where it slowly develops, and 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-Émilion Grand Crus. The tasting is accompanied by a gourmet platter featuring a selection of cured meats and aged cheeses (vegetarian option available on request), for a moment of sharing and conviviality.

    A complete sensory experience, combining terroir, expertise and pleasure, perfect for discovering wine in a different way, as close as possible to those who craft it.
