In the heart of the Pessac-Léognan appellation, you'll wind your way through the vineyards of some of the world's finest crus classés. Châteaux Smith Haut Lafitte, La Louvière and Larrivet Haut Brion are as much photo stops as they are gourmet breaks. The route will take you in the footsteps of Montesquieu, with an obligatory stop at Château de La Brède for a cultural break and a siesta in the landscaped grounds.
