The B&B at the striking Château Tour Saint-Fort is located in the prestigious Saint-Estèphe appellation area, very near the Gironde estuary and approximately 60km from Bordeaux city centre.
This historic, 18th-century building was completely refurbished in 2017 to provide a perfect fusion of history and modernity.
Surrounded by its own 10-hectare/ 24 acre vineyard, the chateau’s first floor houses 5 spacious, comfortable guest rooms. Each features its own specific design and exudes a cosy atmosphere that spirits your mind away to far-off lands. The chateau’s prime location, in the heart of the vineyard, makes it a haven of peace,
The Chateau produces 2 cuvées of Saint Estèphe – a Cru Bourgeois and the Baron d’Estours. Made from a blend of 48% Merlot, 40% Cabernet Sauvignon and 12% Petit Verdot grapes. The vintage is structured through barrel ageing for at least 12 months, and the management of oakiness is proportionate to the quality of the end wines. As a general rule, the percentage of new oak is no higher than 40% for the Château Tour Saint-Fort.
Visits to the cellars are offered.
