Biodynamic wine tasting
By Dina for Discovering biodynamics 4 days ago 5.0
We had a great time doing this tour! The grounds are beautiful, and the tour was short and to the point. It was interesting finding out about the lunar calendar and biodynamic wines. The tasting was lovely and our guide, Barbara, was very nice, knowledgeable, and sociable. A piece of bread between wines would have been great. All in all a great experience.
All was good !

My wife and I enjoyed our visit very much. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable about biodynamics and the château's practices. We learned a lot and sampled some wonderful wines.
Très instructif !

Très bien, malgré une météo pas idéale, la visite était complète et agréable. C'était intéressant, notamment la présentation des plantes pour la biodynamie, et la dégustation était sympa.

La visite s'est bien passée malgré le mauvais temps, l'accueil était bon et nous avons passé un bon moment là-bas. Nous avons été très bien reçus et avons dégusté 4 vins superbes, de très grande qualité.
A great time at Fonroque !

Informative tour of the property starting in the vineyard and then to the winery and cellar. Then we had a tasting in the main building. Exactly what we had hoping for, and the team were really friendly and helpful, spoke English very clearly for us. Lovely setting and really easy to find. We particularly liked learning about their biodynamic practices.
A great discovery
By Caro for Discovering biodynamics a month ago 5.0
A great discovery in Bordeaux! A blend of the old with the Château and the modern with the cellars. A great way to discover biodynamic wines.

La visite s'est très bien passée, nous étions seuls donc nous avons eu une visite "privée". Les vins étaient très bons. C'était super !
