This was our second visit/tour with Caro and this time we chose to visit her winery itself, and do the half day tour/tasting/lunch pairing. We were a group of 9 in our family and there was another group of four that we were pared up with. It was an excellent visit, with the vineyard tour and Biodynamic discussion being the most interesting and informative. If you know anything about the Feely approach it is all about a natural and sustainable way of growing grapes and making wine. The good thing about Caro's guidance on the subject is that she is not only passivate about this approach, but is also very knowledgable, and has a very wise and realistic take on the challenges, realities and benefits. She takes some of the mystery out of the Biodynamic approach, and a visit to her vineyard vs others we have been to will likely make you a biodynamic fan (we are rapidly moving to a place where as big wine fans, buyers and consumers we are increasingly focused on the way the grapes were grown, and are trying to shift to all our purchases being at least organic and wherever we can biodynamic.) And her wines are good quality and well priced in our view. The tasting itself was good, and we chose to try out the Michelin food paring that she has recently introduced which was also good. Overall, if you are in the area, want a deeper dive into wine - and in particular the future of grape growing - and prefer an english speaking but now very experienced France-based guide, Caro and a Chateau Feely visit is a great choice.

We came to the chateau without an appointment, but we were welcomed in the perfect way. Very friendly people, who immediately gave us a tablet and brochure with all the information we needed to do a tour in and around the chateau. In this tour, you can learn all about the chateau, the family and the process of winemaking. A beautiful place with a great history. After the tour, we were invited to do a lovely winetasting. Great wines and very reasonable prices. We will come back!

A beautiful family run vineyard which offers wine tastings and vineyard tours. The award winning wines on sale direct from the Chateau. The vineyard is in a beautiful part of Dordogne with small woods and streams surrounding the vineyards. Besides the wine many visitors like to enjoy the wild orchids, glimpses of deer and hares and the tranquil views from the shady tasting table. Appointment for tasting essential

We visited this vineyard with Alex from ‘Bergerac Wine Tours’ and spent a very agreeable morning tasting a variety of wines after a brief walk through the vineyard. The owners (Sue and Humphrey) are from Somerset and it was interesting to hear about how they set up the vineyard and the production process. We bought a few boxes of wine to take home with us, being particularly fond of their medium body red and the sparkling wine.

A really lovely family day out. The chateau was recently rescued from extreme dilapidation by the Guyot family, who have created a fascinating and entertaining attraction over the last 6/7 years. The building has been lovingly restored and filled with a whole variety of room re-creations. Of particular joy is the informal nature of the chateau. You are free to wander pretty much everywhere and in several rooms old-fashioned games are laid out for the children (and adults!) to enjoy. You can also try on some armour and chain mail. But that’s not all, the grounds are also filled with medieval type games to pass the time. Chuck in some horses, an ice cream and a cave to explore, we loved it :-)

We invite you for a free visit of our cellars, followed by a free tasting of our large range of entirely organic wines. Marked path through the vineyards surrounded by the wood and its lack.

No—the Tobacco Museum isn’t intended to promote tobacco; nor is it meant for smokers alone! Its collections, which are unique in Europe, evoke the saga of a plant with an amazing destiny, sometimes blessed and sometimes cursed; originating and used in America more than 3,000 years ago before conquering Africa and then the world. Its modern manner of consumption has been vilified, but it has left its mark on every civilization sociologically, economically, culturally, artistically, and politically. Discover, in our auditorium and through our exhibitions of rare artefacts, this universal fact of social life, the history of tobacco’s use, and objects related to its consumption. The Tobacco Museum is located in the Maison Peyrarède, also known as the Henri IV Castle. The architecture of this building, constructed in the 17th century in the heart of the historic centre of Bergerac for a wealthy burgher family, stands as an example of the shift from Renaissance to Classicism.

We stumbled across the Cyrano de Bergerac statue hidden away in a picturesque little square. It is not the only statue in of Cyrano in Bergerac, (the other is further down near a very good ice cream parlour) but, it is the better of the two.
