After a guided tour with explanations about wine production, you will participate in a commented tasting of 3 wines (grape juice for children). Then, you will enjoy a picnic with local produces, followed by a hike in the vineyard.
This activity at Château de Champ-Renard consists of a guided tasting tour (1h30) in a small group (2 to 10 people) and a picnic in the Château Park (1h). You can also opt for one of the hiking trails starting from the Château (lasting between 1 and 2.5 hours).
In front of the majestic façade, discover the history of the estate since its construction in 1250 and admire the extraordinary architecture of this former fortified house. Then, delve into the heart of the Château through 8 centuries of history with a tour of its ancient medieval rooms: the justice hall, the dungeon, and the guard room. Continue with a visit to the aging cellar featuring oak barrels, a walk through the vineyards to learn about the estate's grape varieties, and a tour of the winery, showcasing traditional concrete tanks and modern stainless-steel vats.
We will share our eco-friendly practices: sustainable vine cultivation, organic conversion, biodiversity, agroforestry, permaculture, beekeeping, and more, along with our winemaking philosophy.
Next, you’ll participate in a guided tasting of 3 wines to discover the Chardonnay, Gamay, and/or Gamaret grape varieties. Children can also compare two grape varieties by tasting 2 grape juices and learning about an artisanal production process.
Afterward, you can enjoy the 19th-century Château park, featuring a rock bridge, a giant sequoia, a bamboo grove, and a centuries-old hornbeam alley. Relax on the grass or at a garden table for a picnic. We will prepare a picnic basket filled with local products and a bottle of wine from the estate.
Finally, set off on a hike with a guide map to explore the breathtaking landscapes and exceptional heritage surrounding the Château.
