This is a winery tour like no other. On a beautiful sunny day, we were greeted by lovely Eugénie to tour this extraordinary winemaking facility. (Note: you don't tour the castle, that is a private residence.) Eugénie thoughtfully walked us through an overview of their system and their processes, concluding the visit with a tasting of several wines from various years. M. Ladoucette clearly runs an extraordinary operation using only the highest standards. If you enjoy wine, this is an excellent spot.

Louis, the presenter, was superbly informative and accommodating. We arrived slightly late for our scheduled tasting, but he did not rush us through. Delicious wine, excellent commentary: an altogether delightful experience.
