Castle life

" A living medieval castle "

So much has happened at Roquetaillade over 700 years, we will stick to the 20 th century.

The castle is still privately owned and has been lived in by the same family since 1306. It is a classified historical monument. The land is farmed including cattle breeding ( Bazadais race ) and an A.O.C Graves vineyard producing red, white and sweet wines.
