35 km south of Bordeaux on the right bank of the Garonne, the village of Sainte-Croix-du-Mont is a geological curiosity. It is indeed built on a plateau made up of oysters fossilized for 22 million years. The Château des Mailles extends its 30 hectares over this unique terroir. Heirs to a long line that began in 1734, Daniel and Laurence Larrieu perpetuate a tradition that has been going on for six generations.
In their white residence with elegant lines erected in the middle of a wooded park, they welcome you in a friendly atmosphere. Learn with your hosts the secret of Sainte-Croix-du-Mont, this sweet white wine born from the encounter between a terroir, sunshine and an "anomaly of nature", botrytis cinerea. After visiting the cellar and the cellars, taste this specialty of the vintage but also the red or rosé Bordeaux matured at the Château des Mailles.
