Château de Monbazillac
Château de Monbazillac Review
The storybook corner towers of the beautifully proportioned 16th-century gray-stone Château de Monbazillac pay tribute to the fortress tradition of the Middle Ages, but the large windows and sloping roofs reveal a Renaissance influence. Regional furniture and an ornate early-17th-century bedchamber enliven the interior. A wine tasting is included to tempt you into buying a case or two of the famous but expensive bottles.
