Learning about wine
Château Lanessan puts on workshops specifically tailored to children. They may not be old enough to taste wine but they are still given the chance to recognise the basic flavours (sweet, salty, acidic or bitter) involved in making wine, as well as its colours and aromas.

Château d’Agassac is the first wine-making château in France to offer “Winteractive” visits on 5th
generation audio iPods. Visitors embark on a treasure hunt during these visits, inspired by an 18th century story.
