You will enjoy discovering these castles in the vineyards. You will be charmed by the beauty of this heritage, which since the French Revolution, has not stopped improving.

Grape varieties, destemming, cuvaison, fermentation, fining... you will know everything about vinification, the different grape varieties used and the blended wines. You will be able to see that the modernism of today's cellars marries perfectly with ancestral working techniques in order to give birth, each year, to wonderful vintages, always having an assertive temperament. ChĂ¢teau Franc-Mayne, by allowing you to visit the limestone plateau from the inside, will give you the keys to understanding the mineral notes of the Grands Crus of Saint-Emilion.
