Chateau Cordeillan-Bages

Last year we were hosted by Amber and Sam to Chateau Cordeillan-Bages in Paulliac in France.  It is remiss of me to be making this blog entry this late (but my memory banks still avail me of doing this).

This is part of our Bordeaux, Cognac trip that was carefully planned for my 50th Birthday by Amber and Sam.  Chateau Cordeillan-Bages was an amazing destination -- the chateau is well renown as a culinary experience with two star michellin and really superb food.

The degustation courses were all incredible, but then there was also the trolley carts -- chocolate, bread, butter (some incredible butters), dessert, then cheese trolley.   We indeed needed a trolley to roll back to our rooms. The next day's breakfast was simpler but not simple with a collection of jams and spreads that makes you want to try every single one of these.

Chateau Cordeillan-Bages is a special destination - a place that you could truly choose for you last meal on earth.  If you don't appreciate the food there, you have not simply not lived.  Amber and Sam Thanks again for an experience I can't forget !
