The Château d’Eyran Team invites you to come celebrate summer with us on Saturday, June 17, and Sunday, June 18, 2023, from 10 AM to 7 PM.
Also known as Summer Open Days, the Estivales are the must-attend weekend for wine lovers in Pessac-Léognan. In a relaxed and friendly atmosphere, come discover our family estate at the gates of Bordeaux.
TOURS
But what would the open days be without cellar tours? During this weekend, our team will be eager to present our estate, our history, our facilities, and our wines. Regulars know that the « magic touch made in Château d’Eyran » is tasting directly from the barrel. And not just any barrel—our Merlot 2022!
So, prepare your best techniques; it’s time to impress your friends by tasting like a pro!
→ Free, 30 minutes, no appointment necessary, all day long.
TASTINGS
With or without a tour, you will, of course, be able to taste our entire range. Red, rosé, white wines: all the essentials for your summer meals will be present.

WORKSHOPS
The open days are also a chance to discover in a different way. That’s why we have set up workshops over the past few years. Here are the two available for this new edition.
The first is a discussion and discovery workshop with the winemaker. Charles Savigneux, the manager of the estate, has chosen this year’s theme: « Terre de Graves and Soil Life. »
This relaxed and open workshop is accessible to everyone, with no prerequisites. Note that the number of spots is limited!
→ 1.5 hours – Free, Saturday and Sunday at 10:30 AM, by
