Château du Taillan

My wife and I had been looking for a chateau and wine tasting experience that we could travel to ourselves as opposed to being picked up and dropped off. We found Chateau du Taillan and decided it offered what we wanted so booked. We travelled from Chartrons via the bus to La paguarde, with the chateau 5 mins walk away. On arrival we were greeted warmly and our host explained how the tour would work and what we should learn.The tour itself was very informative, was delivered in English and our host regularly asked if we had any questions, when we did these were answered fully and well explained. At the end of the tour we went into the shop area and were able to try 5 different wines, all of which were very nice. Our host was engaging and polite throughout, and really made us feel welcome. We would not hesitate to recommend Chateau du Taillan in terms of their tour and their fine wines.

My expectations weren't extremely high due to the price of this tour, however they were definitely exceeded. Such a great value! I highly recommend if you want an in-depth yet short overview of wine making in Bordeaux. The location is beautiful and the wine is delicious. Jo was our tour guide and we loved how she explained everything to us in such a way that was simple to understand. She is AWESOME! Would love to visit again. Not far from the city center!

A great chateau just outside of Bordeaux. I loved that it was accessible by public transportation. Everyone there was friendly, and Johanna was very knowledgeable and a super tour guide. I would definitely recommend Chateau du Taillan to anyone visiting Bordeaux. The wine was amazing.

Visite très intéressante en grande partie en raison de la qualité de notre accompagnatrice. Explications très intéressantes, répond à toutes les questions avec un extrême gentillesse et un grand professionnalisme. La dégustation aurait pu passer pour un moment de convivialité "entre amis" et toujours accompagné des explications qui donnent du sens à la dégustation. Merci et encore bravo à notre accompagnatrice.

Dégustation parfaite, accueil très agréable et un très bon moment. A refaire !!

La visite fut très agréable, nous avons pu échanger tout au long de la visite et Ludivine a répondu à toutes nos questions. Nous recommandons

Nous avons eu un bon accueil, une visite à l'écoute et en mode privilégié car visite en basse saison pendant les vacances d'hiver.

Une visite très agréable avec une guilde très sympathique, suivie d'une dégustation de très bons vins.

Divine the guide was very professional and well wine educated with high know how

Explications très claires du processus de vinification, et très bon accueil. Notre hôte ne nous a pas incité à acheter du vin suite à la dégustation, ce qui est élégant. Au final j’en ai acheté car il était très bon. J’aurais trouvé intéressant de voir des illustrations/photos du passé et du présent des activités du château. Mais dans l’ensemble c’était tres bien.
