La Riviere, France
Château de la Rivière
Fronsac’s limestone slopes and Merlot-led tradition come into focus at Château de la Rivière, a 16th-century estate above the Dordogne valley with extensive underground cellars cut into the rock. The draw is not only the château setting, but the way the visit links clay-limestone soils, large-scale Right Bank production, sustainable vineyard work and cellar ageing into one coherent Bordeaux lesson.
