Circuit varié et interessant
Globalement satisfait avec une mention spéciale pour les chambres d'hôtes ( accueil et qualité remarquables). Un petit bémole pour le château visité dans l'entre deux mers (pas très qualitatif) et le premier des deux château de Margaux visité le dimanche matin car la visite s'effectue seule sans possibilité de visiter le chai ni d'avoir d'explications. Seule la dégustation a été commentée. pour le reste, mention très bien.
