About the host

Château Sansonnet, a renewal!
Ideally located a few steps from the medieval city, Château Sansonnet dominates the clay-limestone plateau of Saint-Emilion, an exceptional terroir. The vineyard extends over 7 hectares, in one piece, around the Château.
The operating buildings were completely renovated in 2023. Our wines are now vinified in a new vat room, equipped with cutting-edge technology and designed to encourage single-plot work. Aging in barrels, tuns and amphoras continues in the fully restored cellars.
To meet the expectations and curiosity of each visitor, we have imagined two different workshops.

Wonderful experience, our host was Karine - she was outstanding! She took the time to make us feel welcome & tailored the wine tour for us, so we could learn & experience something new! The wine was excellent, one of the best on our trip to Bordeaux!

Excellent location, within walking distance of St. Emilion. Extremely informative, interesting tour of the vineyard and cellar, led by Karine in a very knowledgeable, understandable and passionate manner. The cheese platter was perfect.
