The Médoc Châteaux route
The Châteaux Route extends for 80 kilometres north of Bordeaux between the Atlantic Ocean and the Gironde Estuary.
It includes some of the most prestigious brands of red wine, many châteaux and unusual architecture. It is certainly one of the most beautiful wine tourism routes.
Enter the domains of the Grands Crus and Crus Bourgeois such as Pauillac, Saint-Estèphe, Saint-Julien, Margaux, Moulis... and meet passionate wine growers in a friendly environment while tasting exceptional wines.
