Bordeaux, the Gironde, its legendary vineyards, its fabled castles... nowhereelse is the French art of living so vividly illustrated. As the owner of the Château de Cos d’Estournel, grand cru classé Saint-Estèphe, Michel Reybier has a connoisseur’s appreciation of the region’s refined pleasures and naturally wished to share them.
In keeping with the principle according to which it is the wine that lives in the château rather than the owner, it is thus La Chartreuse de Cos d’Estournel that opens for for a few privileged guests. A garden, and vineyards stretching as far as the eye can see. La Chartreuse de Cos d’Estournel has all the charm of a warm and elegant family residence with its eight rooms including two suites. “Above all, I want my guests to feel at home and to be able to savour an art of living imbued with extreme quality, simplicity and discretion”, says Michel Reybier.
In terms of the interior design, Jacques Garcia has succeeded in preserving the soul of the place and has brilliantly highlighted the spirit and the Sino-Indian style so characteristic of the Cos d’Estournel. Huge ancient black Indian doors; embroidered or shimmering sun-dappled silks in delicate beige, taupe and ivory shades; a fresco painting depicting life in an 18th century, Chinese village; flamboyant draperies; gold-leaf chandeliers... When the splendours of Asia meet the Bordelais vineyards, the encounter is truly unique. The magic of the Château de Cos d’Estournel is no longer reserved for the wine alone; it can now be experienced at the heart of the Chartreuse de Cos d’Estournel, offering exclusive bookings for a maximum of 16 guests.
This is actually Michel Reybier private home and can be rented on an exclusive use basis for those who want to experience the vineyard of Cos d’Estournel. La Chartreuse is the perfect retreat for wine lovers or high level entertaining, family celebrations etc. This very special 8-bedroom chateau and vineyard, gourmand experience is only available to selected clients at certain times of the year when the owner is not in residence.
