Ingrid from Naarden,
Prachtig gelegen chateau met mooi gerenoveerde bijgebouwen. Wij verbleven in de gite La Tour, een zeer smaakvol ingericht huis van alle gemakken voorzien. De beheerders van het domain zijn erg aardig en behulpzaam. Wij hebben genoten van de totale rust, de uitstapjes in de omgeving en het wildzwijn en de haas die zich in de schemering lieten zien!
wouter from amsterdam,
heel erg mooi en heel fijn zwembad
Restaurants, food & wine
Twice a week ,on sunday and thursday there will be the opportunity for all the guests to dine at various atmosperic locations, depending on the weather and the amount of guests.
So you can sit at the long table under the linden tree of the castle or at the old wooden tables in the authentic winery.
Since the 17th century, Château Bredurière has a vineyard of 65 hectares. In 1992, the last grape bushes on Bredurière were removed. In 2013, the grape bushes were planted back on the slope in front of the castle. The local and successful wine grower Fabien Murail makes beautiful Bredurière wines (± 10,000 bottles per year) with the white grapes Chenin and Chardonnay and the red grapes Merlot. In 2015, the first harvest of the Merlot and the Chenin grapes took place. Everything was then picked by hand and in February 2016 the first bottling took place. The red Merlot and the white Chenin are wines from Val du Loire, Vendèe wines which have the I.G.P. (Indication Géographique Protégée) and carry the name Château Bredurière.
