With the summer holidays on the horizon, families have never been more welcome in the vineyards in and around Bordeaux. Although children will not be tasting the wines (but there’s always grape juice), there are plenty of activities designed just for them and others they can share with their parents.
Chateau La Tour Blanche sharing a passion
Sauternes is a wine that requires passion, it’s a challenging wine to make and to sell. Luckily for Sauternes lovers, there are passionate producers across the appellation working together to produce and promote these golden wines. Many have already been championed by Best of Wine Tourism awards. Châteaux La Tour Blanche, Lafaurie-Peyraguey, Sigalas-Rabaud, Rabaud-Promis and Rayne Vigneau have all come together to create a circuit for electric scooters through their vines.
Bordeaux outdoors adventures – Much More than Wine
Wine tourism isn’t only about tasting wine in dim and dark cellars, or even contemporary ones. It’s also about discovering the natural environment, the terroir, that makes every wine unique.
Culture and agriculture – wine and art in the Bordeaux vineyard
Bordeaux wine chateaux are the perfect venue for artistic and cultural events. They offer great spaces to welcome cultural events and the cellars, both ancient and modern, have perfect acoustics for music. There are several organisations that take advantage of these venues by offering programmes of events throughout the region.
