Welcome to Blaye Citadelle Bordeaux Wines

All the wine appellations in the Blaye area cover a total of 6,000 hectares, with no fewer than 700 winegrowers, who will be delighted to welcome you to their family estates to visit their cellars and taste their wines.

Red Blaye Côtes de Bordeaux are mainly Merlotbased,
deep-coloured wines with fruity aromas. Sauvignon Blanc, the star grape variety in white Blaye Côtes de Bordeaux wines, has lovely citrus and broom aromas, good acidity, and a long aftertaste.

You will be welcomed onto wine-growers’ properties and be given a guided tour of their wineries and to finish with a wine tasting session.
