Château de Briante stands in Saint-Lager (Rhône), in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region of France. Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.
The château de Briante stands in Saint-Lager, on the eastern slopes of Mont Brouilly, in the heart of Beaujolais wine country. Captured or destroyed by the English in 1360, it was rebuilt in the 18th century and today functions mainly as a wine estate and guesthouse rather than a monument open for touring. The surrounding 13-hectare domain grows Brouilly, Côte de Brouilly and Moulin-à-Vent grapes under sustainable farming practices. The building houses guest rooms and serves as a starting point for exploring the Beaujolais wine route.
