While on our Uniworld luxury river cruise in France, the “Bordeaux Vineyards & Chateaux” tour, we enjoyed an incredible day trip excursion to the Royal Castle of Cazeneuve, the former residence of King Henry IV and Queen Margot. The castle remains in the family of the Dukes of Sabran-Ponteves, and we met some of their descendants while dining there.
The castle is located in the heart of Aquitaine, near Bordeaux and Cadillac, between the wine regions of Bassin d’Arcachon and the Sauternes vineyards.
