Two Stars: Excellent cooking
Not far from Bordeaux, this property is a little paradise nestled in the vineyards of Château Smith Haut Lafitte, a Graves grand cru classé winery. Nicolas Masse is the chef behind La Grand'Vigne, the hotel's fine dining restaurant. Masse strives tirelessly towards a single goal, which is to showcase the bountiful produce of Aquitaine (from caviar to Pyrenean lamb), including its vegetable cornucopia and its wines, especially those of Pessac Léognan. As legible as it is pure, his high-flying cuisine is dedicated to revealing the distinctive flavour of painstakingly selected produce from southwest France. Nothing is too good, whether it be the front-of-house service, sensitively orchestrated by MOF Louis Morin, or the wine suggestions by Aurélien Farrouil, who is at ease with the estate’s vintages as with a remarkable water menu. A truly mind-blowing experience!
