LES NOISETTINES DU MÉDOC
Read moreLovers of sweets, do not miss this visit and especially the tasting. The story of its creation is fascinating: Edith, a seamstress, and Michel Noyez, a cook, created in the 70's, the Noisettine du Médoc in a 200 year old cellar, at the time in ruins, which they fell in love with. Everyone falls in love with this delicacy whose recipe dates back to 1649. The hazelnut is cooked in a homemade syrup then coated with a caramel puff. Today, this family factory has become a small museum that welcomes nearly 40,000 visitors per year.
CHÂTEAU LA GORCE
Read moreChâteau La Gorce, recognized as a Cru Bourgeois in the 1932 classification, has been in operation since 1822. In 2018, as soon as they arrived, Emmanuel and Mana Martin initiated the conversion of the 48 hectares to organic farming, which was completed by the 2022 vintage. Beyond this conversion, the entire identity of the estate has been revisited and modernized. A case in point is their collaboration with artists such as Clémentine Mélois and Pierre La Police, to illustrate the labels of the Rouge Intense and Rose Dada cuvées with a certain quirkiness. A wonderful discovery.
