Inspired by those in the Loire valley, this beautiful French Renaissance chateau, was built in the 19th century by a Rothschild and has now been gifted to the National Trust for the public to enjoy.
We are delighted to be able to offer an exclusive daytime event for our clients.
Upon arrival you will be welcomed into the chateau by your guide for the day and enjoy tea, coffee, and a selection of pastries.
Your guide will then take you on a tour of the house.
Exclusive Cellar Tour and Tasting
The highlight of the day is an exclusive wine cellar tour, with a wine and cheese tasting and lunch . The tasting will be run by one of Waddesdon’s maestro sommeliers.
The tasting highlights eight Rothschild wines, four of which derive from Bordeaux and four from New World vineyards.
You will discover whether your palate is suited to the rich and juicy New World style, or whether you possess a classical palate suited to the savoury and layered Old World style.
Consisting of three white wines and five reds the tasting provides you with a broad spectrum of wines of impeccable quality
