Château La Rose Saint-Germain offers a unique panoramic view for visitors wishing to discover the rural countryside of Entre-Deux-Mers with its vines, woods and gentle slopes. Here and there are dotted ancient stone buildings, each with its own rich local heritage and history. The name of this property comes directly from its geographical location, between “A La Rose” and the ruins of the church of Saint-Germain de Campet, dating back to the 11th Century.
