Château de Segonzac

Château de Segonzac is a castle and winery in Segonzac, France, located on a sunny slope overlooking the Gironde River. The building encompasses vineyards and cellar facilities that together span about 43 hectares of land.

Jean Dupuy, a politician and newspaper founder of the Third Republic, established the estate in 1887. The castle has developed into a significant wine producer in the region since then.

Wine production shapes daily life on the grounds, where visitors can observe work in the vineyards and cellars. The working areas show how traditional and contemporary techniques mix together.

The best time to visit is during harvest season, when activities in the vineyards and cellars are most visible. The castle sits easily accessible near Segonzac and offers guided tours that show both areas.

The estate was a location of military activity during World War II, when British commandos operated in the area. A commemorative plaque on the walls marks this chapter from wartime.
