Create an itinerary including Chateau du Taillan

Located on the banks of the Garonne, Chateau du Taillan has been in the winemaking business since the Middle Ages. In fact, the Knights Templar are believed to have made their own wine here. The current owner's family has presided over the business for more than 100 years. Their vineyard specializes in merlot, because the grape does so well in the region's clay-limestone soil. Take a tour of the winery, which covers the history of the castle, as well as its 16th-century cellars, and taste its acclaimed wine. Arrange to visit Chateau du Taillan and other attractions in Bordeaux using our Bordeaux road trip planning site.

Incredible experience! The tour was really informative and the wines delicious, apart from being in an amazing location with beautiful views of the vineyards. 100% recommended, especially given how easy it is to get to from Bordeaux centre.
