  Epicurean discovery
  Discover the Castle Old Tower and the Cadillac-Côtes de Bordeaux vineyards on an electrically assisted mountain bike with GPS audio-guide (or complete road-book).
  
  Castle Old Tower has been a family property for 3 generations. Jérôme Gouin, owner-grower inherited his grandfather's love of wine and cultivates his vines in a traditional and eco-responsible way. He works with his wife Béatrice-Anne and they complement each other in all areas: one in the production and the other in the marketing of the wines. They have decided to unite their efforts, to reinvent themselves and continue the story of Castle Old Tower together.
  
  Located in the town of Laroque, the vineyard is located on the right bank of the Garonne and extends over 16 hectares.
  
  Established on sometimes clay-limestone, sometimes clay-gravelly hillsides overlooking the Garonne, Castle Old Tower enjoys a privileged geographical location on the Cadillac terroir, in the Côtes de Bordeaux.
  
  We invite you to learn more about Castle Old Tower as well as the terroir and history of the Côtes de Bordeaux by getting on one of the property's electric bikes and following one of the audio-guided routes, which will take you discover the nuggets of this beautiful terroir.

Remarkable Tower site with magnificent 360 degree views. In the summer, we take part in always successful evenings, animated by the passion of Jerome and Beatrice. And of course, the wine is up to par! We particularly appreciate the Signature vintages (white and red) which reflect all the talent and inspiration of the winemaker.

Very nice experience. We chose the electric bike ride followed by wine tasting option. This is a very nice initiative. The weather was very beautiful and this allowed us to visit the area via small paths in the middle of the vineyards, stopping at a few essential points where explanations were given to us. The welcome was very attentive and the tasting was nourished by exciting and passionate explanations. Château Vieille Tour is truly delicious. We shared the exceptional vintage that same evening with friends. we had a blast. We already regret not having brought more.

Here you will meet friendly and welcoming owners who will share with you the passion for their vines during the tasting. Possibility of taking a pleasant orientation walk around the area and renting electric scooters and bikes. We can't wait to take part in a summer evening at the foot of the old tower in a tavern atmosphere!
