Description
On the remains of a fortified tower built by Charlemagne, Château de La Rivière was constructed in 1577 by Gaston de l'Isle, mayor of Bordeaux and restored by Viollet-le-Duc. Located at the West of Libourne, it dominates the Dordogne valley and the 60 hectares of its vineyards. Respected as one of the finest wine in Fronsac, Château de La Rivière is powerful, rich and fruity, with the strong reflexion of its terroir. Aged for 12 to 15 months in amazing caves, this wine ages wonderfully.
The arms’ room, the chapel, the ladies’ bath and the underground cellars constitute an outstanding architectural heritage open to the public combining in a unique way wine and history. The 8 hectares of underground cellars are also open for tours: more than 1,000 barrels and 900,000 bottles are stored. This chateau also suggests to rent the arms’ room for meetings, meals or cocktails.
This place is also a way to enter the world of relaxation and refinement: five luxury bed and breakfasts have been entirely restored in the Renaissance wing. Come and discover chateau’s lifestyle!

Located in the Renaissance wing transformed by Viollet-le-Duc, these rooms have been entirely restored. The chateau suggests you 4 double rooms and 1 twin room. Two rooms communicate with one another and offer the possibility of a suite.

Each room has its private bathroom (shower or bath, toilets, hair-dyer, towel-dryer, bathrobes and towels provided), phone and television. Guests can leave their car on our private car park.
We will suggest you to have breakfast in the former kitchen of the chateau or on the terrace overhanging the vineyards. It includes coffee, tea, chocolate, cereals, bread, Viennese pastries, butter, home-made jam, orange juice, yogurts, fruits, delicatessen and eggs.
You can also have a rest in the tisanerie (fresh or hot drinks available) or refresh in our private south-exposed swimming-pool.
Activities at the château: tours of the underground cellars, wine-tasting, tennis, swimming-pool and walking. Several restaurants nearby.
