A short distance from Bordeaux Airport, this picturesque Relais & ChÃƒÂ¢teaux boutique hotel is situated in the vineyard of the owners, the Cazes family of Chateau Lynch-Bages Grand Cru ClassÃƒÂ©.

This country manor, with origins dating back to the 1700s, is the only Relais & Chateaux hotel and Michelin starred restaurant in the MÃƒÂ©doc since 1992.

In October, its one Michelin star fine-dining restaurant will present the House of Krug together with a perfectly paired menu.

This is an exclusive opportunity for guests to be amongst the first to discover the newest Krug 2006, plus enjoying other fine champagnes such as Krug 1996 or Krug Grande CuvÃƒÂ©e 167ÃƒÂ¨me Edition.

For this unique partnership between great Champagnes and haute cuisine, chef Julien Lefebvre and chef sommelier Arnaud Le Saux have carefully paired ingredients and flavours that are intended above all to be pure, bright, structured and elegant.

ChÃƒÂ¢teau Cordeillan-Bages offers overnight accommodation including buffet breakfast from 365Ã¢â€šÂ¬ TTC per person, based on double occupancy. The Krug Gala Dinner is 240Ã¢â€šÂ¬ TTC, including beverages.
