      Exploring the aromas of Semillon, Sauvignon and Muscadelle: tasting the future

      3 GRAPE VARIETIES TO TASTE THE MYSTERY OF MONBAZILLAC

      • Semillon
      Semillon brings power and structure to blended wines, especially when combined with Sauvignon Blanc, of which it is the privileged partner for the production of Monbazillac.
      Its colour is golden yellow, the aromas offer a wide range, from candied apricot, pineapple or mango to "roasted". The grape variety develops complex flavours of spices, honey and mushrooms.

      • Sauvignon Blanc
      Sauvignon Blanc is the grape variety that winemakers incorporate with Semillon - the dominant grape variety. It brings freshness and fruity aromas.
      Its light colour has green reflections. The variety develops vegetal and fruity notes of citrus, rhubarb, with floral touches of elderberry and mineral touches. Its acidity on the palate gives an invigorating sensation appreciated for sweet wines.

      • Muscadelle
      Muscadelle brings floral notes of acacia and honeysuckle to blended wines, as well as fruity notes of peach and apricot enhanced by spicy touches. It gives a soft and smooth sensation on the palate.

      3 AREAS TO TASTE THE FUTURE AND EXPLORE YOUR SENSES


      • The Aroma Pavilion
      Located in the Courtyard of the Château, the Flavour Pavilion is a space that places tasting at the centre of the experience.
      The visitor sits around tables, 3 wines are proposed and commented on by a team of professionals who reveal all the secrets of the wines tasted to the participants. An ideal moment to deepen the discovery of our wines!
      More than just a tasting, we hope that it will be a journey that will take each participant to a world of their own. In any case, a moment of sharing and exploration!

      This adventure of the senses in the Aroma Pavilion lasts 30 minutes and is programmed at the beginning of the visit according to different themes.

      • The shop area

    The chateau is really well located and organised with a good exhibition about wine in their entrance. The tasting menu experience is very well explained and one of the most completes one we had in the region. The castle itself is simple and doesn’t have interior decoration, you need to have this experience for the wines. Good prices for the products after your visiting. Highly recommend this chateau.
