Behind a majestic pink marble gate, embark on a journey through time and admire the charm of an elegant 18th century chartreuse and one of the last typical Médoc vat room from the late 19th century.
The visit begins with a presentation of the regional vineyards and the exceptional terroir of the Margaux appellation.
Then discover the long and beautiful history of this 3rd Grand Cru Classé in 1855, founded in 1741 by Jean-Baptiste Desmirail and owned currently by Denis Lurton.
In these authentic buildings, on the first floor, the visitor will be able to admire an exceptional framework and will no doubt be impressed by the aesthetics of a recent wooden vat room.
The visit will continue with the methods of vinification and ageing of the wine in barrels.
To finish this visit through the ages on a note of conviviality and sharing, we will finally offer you a tasting of three wines from the Château, paired with a selection of cheeses and charcuterie: our Margaux (Château Desmirail and Initial de Desmirail) and, depending on the season, our Haut-Médoc (Iris Pourpre de Desmirail) or our rosé de saignée (Rosé de Desmirail).
