Operated by Château La Rose Perrière · Lussac, Nouvelle-Aquitaine
Château La Rose Perrière sits amid the gentle rows of vines in Lussac, Nouvelle-Aquitaine, France, where summer lunches turn the estate into a low-key festival of food and wine. Les Déjeuners de l’Été is a series of themed Friday lunches held on select dates through June to September, pairing simple, regionally influenced cooking with glasses of estate wine. Each event features a guest culinary partner—La Table d’Espagne’s paëlla, David Cuisine l’Essentiel’s tapas, burgers and barbecues—and small menus priced per person, making it an approachable way to taste local specialties without a formal tasting.
The experience begins on the château grounds, accessible to wheelchairs, where long tables and a shaded terrace give way to views across vineyard slopes. The key features are the château itself, the vineyard rows, and the seasonal menus that rotate by date; notable elements include estate wines offered by the glass and a 15% discount on bottle purchases in the boutique during your visit. With a group cap around thirty people and multilingual hosts (English, Spanish, French), the setting is convivial and well suited to families or groups of friends.
Book ahead: these events require a minimum 48 hours’ reservation and are curated around specific dates from June through September. Menu items and partnering chefs may vary; typical dishes listed include paëlla, tapas, burgers with fries, and barbecue platters, often finished with classic desserts such as natillas or San Sebastian cheesecake. The château’s team recommends arriving a little early to browse the shop and pick a bottle to pair with your meal.
Why go? Les Déjeuners de l’Été offer a grounded way to enjoy Bordeaux countryside cuisine without the formality of a tasting menu or vineyard tour. It’s unique here because the lunches are hosted right on the domaine, giving diners direct access to both the vines and the wine maker’s shelves, and because the rotating culinary partners bring regionally specific flavors to a single, easygoing lunch format.
Practical notes: events are priced per menu and subject to change; cancellations are accepted up to 48 hours in advance. Expect relaxed service, convivial table service, and the chance to take home wine at a local discount. Château La Rose Perrière’s lunches are a practical, delicious way to spend a summer afternoon in Lussac while sampling everyday expressions of the local terroir.
Plan to arrive by car: parking is available on site, and nearby accommodations in Lussac or Saint-Émilion make the château a day trip from Bordeaux. Bring sun protection for long-table lunches and a light layer for cooler evenings; many guests linger after dessert to walk between vines. If you love straightforward local wine and lively company, these summer lunches are a memorable way to experience Bordeaux life.
