Languages spoken
Welcome to the heart of the Graves region, at Château de Portets!
Set off on a 1½-hour walking tour, guided by an app you can download onto your smartphone. You’ll wander through the vineyards and the narrow streets of the village of Portets, ending your walk at the Château with a wine tasting!
Meet in the château courtyard, where you’ll set off, passing over the Renaissance terrace towards the vineyards and the Garonne. Take the time to admire the view and discover the old port of the village of Portets. At each stop, the app will provide an explanation.
You’ll learn about the origin of the name Portets, the bustling trade that once thrived on its jetties, the historical remains dotted around the village… And finally, the Château de Portets, a medieval fortress transformed into a Renaissance château, and now an authentic family-run wine estate.
You’ll round off your walk with a tasting of three wines.
