Château Réaut Tourism & Event in Rions.

Château Réaut stands apart as a working Bordeaux wine estate that doubles as an event venue, offering couples direct access to 14 hectares of vineyard landscape rather than merely hosting ceremonies within it.

Located in Rions, this château provides an authentic terroir experience where wedding celebrations integrate seamlessly with the property's active wine production.

Guests enjoy curated tastings and the genuine backdrop of a functioning winery—a distinction rarely found at comparable venues in the region.

Excellent location with a beautiful deck to take in all the scenery. We took the tour of the new facility and learned a lot about the chateau history and about the area. Our guide was very informative and the wines we tasted were great!
