Château des Bachelards
Founded by the Benedictine monks of Cluny around 1100, Château des Bachelards embodies an art of living where heritage, hospitality and viticulture meet. Located in Fleurie, in the north of the Beaujolais region, the estate extends over 18 hectares of vines, 6 of which directly surround the château in the Fleurie AOC, complemented by plots in Saint-Amour, Moulin-à-Vent and Beaujolais Villages.
A pioneer of biodynamic viticulture in the region, the estate has three organic and biodynamic certifications (Demeter, Biodyvin), a testament to its deep respect for the terroirs and ecosystems. Its wines, regularly acclaimed by international critics, combine the elegance of Burgundy with the delicacy of the Rhône Valley.
But Château des Bachelards is also a hospitable destination. Visitors are invited to discover this extraordinary place through guided tours, personalised tastings and immersive experiences, in the heart of the vineyards and gardens. In a timeless setting, the team passionately shares its know-how, its history and its vision of a sustainable vineyard.
Combining a thousand years of history, a commitment to the environment and a warm welcome, Château des Bachelards offers a rare interlude, ideal for private or professional events.

-Several options are available:
- The Grande Dégustation: a complete immersion from the vines to the cellars, followed by a commented tasting of the estate's wines. To be enjoyed with or without food and wine pairings.
