Penfolds take over

So today we visited a ruined castle and a Chateau we hadn't previously visited.
 
The vineyard buildings at Chateau Lanassan were a bit tired but the guide told us that several were to be renovated. 

An Australian company has bought a 75,% interest in the business. I asked if it was Penfolds and she told us that it's one of three French vineyards in which Penfolds has a large interest.
 
I immediately took more interest in the site. Some pics follow.


Empty vats as new ones are being installed

It was our guide's first time guiding a large group. She did well

Spa bath?
