An exclusive one-hour day experience devoted entirely to discovering the unique savoir-faire and fascinating history of one of Sauternes' most celebrated Premier Cru Classé estates. The guided route opens with a charming walk among the estate's vineyards, offering a spectacular panoramic view over the whole appellation. Guests are then led into the beating heart of production, visiting the vat room and the evocative barrel cellar where the wine rests in silence. The experience culminates in a guided tasting of three prestigious cuvées from the Maison: the fresh Léonie, the refined Les Charmilles and the majestic Château La Tour Blanche - Grand Cru.
Set in the heart of the Bommes appellation and ranked a 1er Grand Cru Classé in the historic official 1855 classification, Château La Tour Blanche is an undisputed symbol of excellence and winemaking tradition in the Bordeaux region. With a history reaching back to the 17th century, the estate embodies a perfect union between respect for a terroir unique in the world — kissed by the mists of the river Ciron that encourage the famous "noble rot" — and a pioneering vision of oenology. Today the estate is not only a temple of wine, but also home to a renowned school of viticulture and oenology, where the secrets and magic of Sauternes are faithfully preserved, protected and passed down from generation to generation.
Guided historical tour of the estate, panoramic vineyards and vat room.
Exclusive visit to the Château's barrel cellar.
