Courses |
Médoc
golf course Les Vignes
Designed
by Rod Whitman, Medoc
les Vignes course is set in a typically regional landscape where the beauty of
the moors and of the maritime pines serve to enhance the architect’s
design.
The
long par 5 holes with their carefully designed greens, the judiciously placed
bunkers call for precise strokes. The
wide variety of the playing situations and the delightful setting will meet the
expectations of the most demanding players.
Médoc
golf course Les Châteaux
Site
of the French open in 1999 (European PGA Tour), Medoc
les Châteaux Golf Course corresponds to the pure tradition of Scottish links.
Wide fairways bordered by heather, gorse, and broom, entice golfers into the
delights of carefully preserved nature.
The
fast greens, the influence of winds from the Atlantic
ocean,
and the technical difficulties of the layout go to make this championship course
a constant challenge.
Medoc
les Châteaux course is set in the heart of the wine area and the players will
have no doubt about that, since each hole is named after a
Medoc
top vintage and the 150 yards mark is …a bottle of wine.
Lacanau
golf course
Lacanau,
one of the most famous surf spot in Europe,
offers a superb golf course with its pine-shaded fairways close to the
Atlantic
ocean.
It
is an enchantment for the walking golfer, and the advanced golfer will enjoy the
challenge of this demanding course with its scattered traps, water hazards, and
its challenging undulated greens.

Visit
of the medieval town of Saint-Emilion
There
are some architectural sites which have always seemed, from immemorial times, to
blend in with the surrounding landscape. Saint-Emilion is just such a jewel of
stones, in a natural setting of utmost beauty.This
medieval town stands proudly at the top of the hill overlooking the worldwide
renowned Saint-Emilion vineyards and is the ideal place for wine tasting and
shopping.Built
in the form of an amphitheatre, Saint-Emilion has also a remarkable monolithic
church and its Romanesque monuments and vestiges tuck away in the back streets
which seem to defy the passage of time. The stone is a soft ochre colour, and
somehow symbolises the town’s spirit
Wine
tasting visit at Chateau Franc Mayne, a Saint Emilion Grand Cru
Classé wine renowned for its quality and its famous cellar and underground
corridors. Located on the prestigious hillside of the Côte des
francs, Château Franc-Mayne has a vineyard of 7 uninterrupted hectares, planted
on the old stone quarries in the heart of the Saint-Emilion
appellation
Wine
tasting visit at Château Pichon Longueville (Grand Cru Classé
de Medoc).
It
was in the 17th century that Jacques de Pichon, Baron de Longueville, began to
put together the vineyard of Pichon-Longueville, between St-Julien and Pauillac.
The reputation of this wine was established in a few years and the fame of the
domaine equalled that of Latour.
