Informations
The magnificent 18th century residence has belonged to the Barton family since 1821, who still live there today. The plots of the 2 Crus Classés of Saint-Julien are located around the chateau, in the heart of the appellation. The property is reopening its doors after several years of closure for renovation work on the cellars and the vat room. Different tour and tasting packages are offered on the website.
