Chateau Leognan
Le Manège restaurant, south-western terroir at the heart of the experience.
A work of architecture, a technological achievement. In their determination to breathe new life into this Classified Growth, the Lorenzetti family found a natural ally in celebrated architect Jean-Michel Wilmotte, who responded with a pure and unpretentious solution that incorporated the aesthetic of transparency that defines the property. If the 21st century buildings of Pédesclaux represent a work of architecture in their own right, they are also a technological achievement. In the new, gravity-fed winery, Wilmotte has thought of everything that will help to preserve the aromas of the grapes. This is where the essence of the Pédesclaux terroir achieves its fullest expression.
Château Pichon Baron, Second Grand Cru Classé in 1855, is one of the great historic vineyards of Bordeaux. A rigorous selection policy in the vineyard and in the cellars ensures the production of a Grand Vin, Château Pichon Baron, which is the pure expression of our unique terroir.
The experience can be subject to change due to bad weather or unforseen circumstances. We always endeavour to give you the best possible experience.
