On June 7th and 8th, 2025, Château Roc de Calon will open its doors to celebrate, for one joyful weekend, the authenticity of the family vineyard and the richness of the Montagne-Saint-Émilion appellation. Located in Montaigne, at the highest point of Libournais, this century-old estate spans 21 hectares of contiguous land and offers a breathtaking panoramic view of Libourne.

A historic estate with a remarkable view
Since 1922, four generations of the Laydis family have taken the lead at the estate, now run by the Laydis couple, who are behind the renovation of the winemaking facility and exciting future hotel projects. Currently undergoing organic conversion, the vineyard will produce certified wines starting from the 2025 vintage. Here, we exclusively craft red wines, primarily using merlot, complemented by cabernet franc. Great deal: all weekend long, visitors will enjoy a 20% discount on any bottle purchases.
Tastings, Meetups, and an Introduction to the Art of Wine
On Saturday, from 10 AM to 5 PM, visitors can enjoy free tastings and tours featuring four wonderful wines: the fresh and fruity Summer from Roc de Calon, the Daylis, the historic cuvée Château Roc de Calon, and the elegant Écrin. There will be two workshops at 2 PM and 3:30 PM, led by Thomas Laydis and content creator Estelle Mau (@CestMadameQuiChoisitLeVin), immersing the audience in the world of wine and the art of hosting.

A Summer Party in the Heart of the Vineyards
On Sunday, from 11 AM to 9 PM, it's all about relaxation. After a day of tastings, the Summer Party kicks off at 5 PM, right in front of the vineyards. On the agenda: DJ set, shareable platters, and the official launch of the cocktail "Nuit Pourpre", brilliantly crafted by the students of Vatel Bordeaux to enhance the Summer cuvée. This refreshing summer blend features lime, blueberries, fresh mint, crème de cassis, and lemonade, making it the perfect drink to savor the moment.
When it comes to dining, three delightful menus at €12 will be offered every lunch, but only with a reservation. What's on the menu? Sharing platters, grilled delights, and desserts, paired with wine or grape juice. Blending tradition, innovation, and friendliness, Roc de Calon promises a colorful weekend that reflects the richness of its lands and heritage.
