About Château Ambe Tour Pourret

Château Ambe Tour Pourret is located on the original road that once linked Saint-Émilion to Coutras, a route taken by Louis XIII at the end of the Hundred Years’ War. The first records of the château date back to 1811. At that time, only part of the buildings existed, while the estate’s emblematic tower was not built until 1845. The property as it stands today was completed in 1925. During the Second World War, the château was requisitioned by the German army, which occupied part of the estate.

In 2007, Françoise and Philippe Lannoye fell under the spell of Château Ambe Tour Pourret, located at the gateway to the medieval village of Saint-Émilion, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. With its beautiful building, inner courtyard shaded by a magnificent chestnut tree, relaxed way of life and small vineyard in front of the château, it is an ideal place to welcome guests and share a passion for wine and Bordeaux gastronomy.

Travellers' review - Château Ambe Tour Pourret

  • A stay in the highlands

    Two days in the beautiful Saint-Emilion terroir

  • Sublime stay

    We had a wonderful, well-organized stay. Everything was well done and we were very well received everywhere. The agreement between the partners seemed to work well, given the warm welcome we received. The saffron farm was a pleasant surprise, as this passionate couple taught us a lot about this little-known spice, apart from its price. Cabin accommodation was sumptuous, and the aperitif, dinner and breakfast baskets were copious and delicious. The next day's bike ride to Saint Emilion was very pleasant, the only downside being that my partner came across a bike at the end of its life, so he didn't enjoy the ride as much. The tourist office had provided us with a cycling tour guide (a very good idea). The welcome at Ambe Tour Pourret and Soutard was warm and well organized. We had a good lunch in the first château and enjoyed a lovely visit to Soutard thanks to our guide Léa, who knew how to captivate us with her explanations. In short: a sublime stay not to be missed! Thank you

  • two-day stay

    very pleasant stay, arrival at the organic saffron farm, excellent welcome from a passionate couple, then arrival at our accommodation, high up in the mountains, by a young and dynamic team, only regret not having had time to visit the surrounding area, too short in time, everything was perfect in terms of catering, aperitif, dinner, breakfast, then departure for St-Emillion, collection of our bikes for the day, tour of the surrounding area, visit to château ambe tour pourret, wine and cheese tasting, excellent welcome from 2 young ladies, then appointment at château Soutard, but there was a staffing problem, the visit was delayed, we left disappointed, it's a shame such a large estate doesn't hire enough staff.... that's the only bad note of our stay, which was very pleasant.

  • stay naturally organic Bordeaux

    Day 1: paradise at 8 m, very nice cabin, very good bedding, hearty dinner on a pulley with sunset as a bonus. Excellent breakfast. A little adrenalin on the way back down. A very friendly, welcoming and professional team. Day 2: We headed for Chateau Ambe Tour Pourret, where 2 charming, kind and smiling hostesses awaited us for lunch, with tastings of 3 wines. All very delicious. Excellent exchange. Bikes collected, we set off through the vineyards to Chateau Soutard for a guided tour and wine tasting. Discovery of some very good wines. Finally, a visit to the Safranière Artisanale in Ambarés la Grave. Two people passionate about the history of saffron are waiting to share their knowledge with you. A tasting of refined products delighted our taste buds, with these two friendly people. An unforgettable weekend, to be recommended.

  • Naturellment Bio stay in St Emilion: Formidable!

    Day 1: - Visit to the organic farm Oh! Légumes Oubliés: the tasting of products was excellent and original. - Overnight at the Cabane de La Romaningue in the "Sauternes" cabin, perched 8 meters up on a two-hundred-year-old oak: magnificent, peaceful and relaxing. - Dinner in the cabin: the hot basket to be assembled using a pulley is very original and the meal delicious. Day 2: - Breakfast, still to be assembled using a pulley: copious and famous. - Visit to Saint-Emilion. - Lunch at Château Ambe Tour Pourret: cheese platter accompanied by 3 glasses of wine to taste the Château's products, delicious. - Blending workshop at Château Soutard with visit and tasting: great welcome and the workshop is a very good idea. - Visit to Château Fonplégade with tasting of 2 Pomerols and 2 St Emilions: top wines. The itinerary was different from the one advertised on your site, but all in all it was a win-win situation, and the 3 châteaux we visited in St Emilion were excellent choices (taste, welcome, importance of the properties). And the night we spent 8m up in the air will stay with us for a long time. Bravo VinoTrip!!!

  • The wines

    The vineyard covers 5 hectares and is planted with 70% Merlot and 30% Cabernet Franc, on sandy soils with a clay subsoil. Like its neighbours Châteaux Fonplégade and Soutard, the estate has chosen to follow a fully organic approach. The grapes are harvested by hand and the wines are aged in oak barrels for 15 to 18 months.

  • Wine experiences at the château

    The owners welcome visitors for a tour of the estate and cellars. In the château courtyard, in the shade of the century-old chestnut tree, guests can enjoy a wine tasting accompanied by a plate of fine cheeses from different regions of France. The experience ends with coffee and macarons.
