Château Royal de Cazeneuve: Sauternes vineyards


Here in North America, we are settling back into our daily routine after a summer of travel. We are watching autumn unfurl in fiery red and gold foliage - with glorious sunsets floating in brilliant pink and orange.  It's easy to move on with the hustle and bustle of everyday life, but today we're taking a moment to reflect on the Aquitaine - one of the most diverse regions of France. Join us as we enjoy food and wine at the storybook castle, Château Royal De Cazeneuve.

The alluring Gironde countryside is a wine lover’s paradise and every traveler’s dream. This appellation is a feast for the senses: panoramic views, storybook castles, chateau-dotted hillsides, and winding rivers, all nestled among flourishing vineyards, in the heart of the Aquitaine. Here we discover the time-worn Cazeneuve Castle, an ancestral residence for the House of Albret-in the small commune of Préchac, France.

Located between the wine regions of Bassin d’Arcachon and the Sauternes vineyards, is the historical Château Royal De Cazeneuve; a family jewel of the Duke of Albret. First built in the eleventh century and it became the residence of Henry IV and Queen Margo, and where history still lives on. Today this fortified castle remains a family legacy – cascading down through descendants, of the ducal family de Sabran-Pontevés.
