2 2 ART DE VIVRE AT CHATEAU DE FERRAND CHATEAU DE FERRAND, ANCIENT HERITAGE WITH THE FUTURE IN ITS SIGHTS Château de Ferrand has been a leading light among the great Bordeaux wine estates for three hundred years. In 2012 Ferrand won deserved recognition for the unanimously acclaimed quality of its wines when the estate was awarded Saint-Emilion Grand Cru Classé status. This ranking also rewards châteaux that have been able to develop their architectural heritage and make it available to wine-lovers. This is certainly the case of Ferrand, where the vines are set around a stunning 17th-century château. The ancient woodland has been preserved, creating a magical environment enhanced further by a truly magnificent view over the Dordogne Valley. Ferrand has fully restored winemaking facilities and a unique function/tasting room. Everything here is designed to appeal to wine-lovers, wine professionals and visitors from all horizons. Tasting sessions are given by a sommelier, while the accompanying cuisine is refined and always perfectly matched to the range of vintages on offer. Authenticity runs through this exceptional estate, from the beauty of the site to the inestimable care and attention brought to the winemaking process, as well as food & wine pairings to delight the palate. Ferrand is the epitome of French art de vivre.
