Win a Wine Lovers’ Trip For Two

to Chateau Magnol

 

The Heart of Barton & Guestier

in the Fabulous Region of Bordeaux France

Château Magnol is the heart of Barton & Guestier, hosting the company’s headquarters, guesthouse and a wine school, the B&G Food & Wine Academy.

Barton & Guestier is one of the oldest wine houses in Bordeaux from where Thomas Barton and Daniel Guestier established a reputation for French wines around the world. They were the first to offer all the great French wines under one name. In the USA, B&G wines were imported and recommended by Thomas Jefferson himself as from the end of the 18th century.

The Barton & Guestier Food & Wine Academy was created back in 1989 and has welcomed and trained around 450 trade partners per year. Guests immerse themselves in the “French Art of Living” experience while enjoying training, wine dinners, and food and wine pairing workshops among other offerings.

This incredible experience is now open for the readers from Wine Enthusiast by participating in the sweepstake!

Update: This sweepstakes has ended.

Château Magnol, an 18th century castle, offers 12 comfortable rooms where guests benefit from the serenity of the château life. An experienced team looks after the well-being of the guests and all of the courses are carefully prepared by Chef Yann Orgebin, Château Magnol’s dedicated Chef.  Orgebin pays great attention to the food & wine pairings to help discover new flavors and sensations, delight our senses and to enhance our wines.

The Barton & Guestier Food & Wine Academy presents a three-day educational program.
Omar Barbosa, Best Sommelier of Mexico, and Education & Hospitality Manager teaches various theoretical subjects like winemaking and tasting techniques, the French AOC system, and much more.
