There are thousands of châteaux in the Bordeaux wine region which makes it almost impossible to choose just a few when you visit Bordeaux. However, if your timing is right, you might be visiting during one of the open-door weekends taking place at the wineries of Bordeaux throughout the year.
Many of Bordeaux's wine appellations host “Portes Ouvertes” (open doors) weekends at least once a year. These events are usually hosted by the wineries of each appellation and include free tastings, tours, local gastronomy, and some activities for kids.
As the Autumn season of Open Doors is approaching I decided to update my list of events with all the new dates for 2024 and the beginning of 2025.

Just wanted to share a few photos from the brilliant "White Evening" that took place last Friday in Arcachon.
So many events that try so hard to create the right vibe but somehow in Arcachon it just happens naturally. When the event organizers asked to wear something white, people listened! Every single person was wearing white, without exception, and when I say white I mean ALL WHITE, including handbags, shoes, and accessories. The only thing Arcachon had to provide was a great DJ (having a stunning location helps too :) ) and they definitely delivered.
If you're here next summer, this event is a must!

This stunning estate is Château Lamothe Bergeron - one of my favorite wineries in Haut Medoc. Last week, they hosted a fun summer event called After Work en Medoc. Every "Afterwork" is hosted by a different chateau in Medoc and is dedicated to a specific color. Next on the list is Château du Taillan, which will host a white evening on July 18th.
In the meantime, you can just book a tour in Château Lamothe Bergeron, which offers several interesting chateau tours with wine tasting, wine siesta and a gourmand visit. See all the available tours here.
