What the day feels like
How the afternoon unfolds
The Offre Pique Nique Classique is conceived as a leisurely pause on the château grounds: settle in the park between the vines, open a curated basket of terrines, sweets and accompaniments, and share a bottle of Château de La Rivière as you take in the surrounding landscape. If rain intervenes, the experience moves inside to the Salle d’Armes so the meal proceeds sheltered from the elements.
