Auberge Les Vignes - Sauternes

Sauternes is quiet small but has a quiet a few restaurants but this one caught our eye. They have an impressive wine card and a full cellar with wine. Service was good but in the end they forgot us (got really crowded). Food was pretty good. and they have a 3 meal course menu for a good price.

We have had dinner at this restaurant two nights in a row. Both nights were excellent. The braaing (barbecuing) was done on a fire made from old vines. The cooking, flavour and presentation of the Argentinian steak was outstanding. Please support this youthful team who are very customer and quality conscious.

This is a little restaurant in a tiny town, but what a fantastic meal! I had the All Sauternes menu for 60 Euro and my wife had the 30Euro formula. Her pumpkin bisque was awesome actually tasted more like lobster bisque. Her lamb shoulder confit was excellent fall apart tender and great flavour (portion size was quite large and she couldn 't eat it all even though I ate some. The All Sauternes meal was incredible. I like my wine and have a fairly discerning palate (and have enjoyed many bottles in the $100 200 range at restaurants thanks mom! I wasn 't sure what to expect I was having langoustines, then fire roasted duck breast, and bourbon vanilla cheesecake I was thinking Sauternes goes with that variety of food??! A BIG YES IT DOES! The wines they paired were excellent with each course and the pours were very generous. When I got home to Langley, BC I looked up the one served with the duck and it is $150/750mL bottle at the liquor store. Each pour was over 3 ounces (I told my wife at the time that each of those pours would easily have been $40 50 each at home. I under estimated! All of my courses were outstanding. Our waiter was excellent. Music was great but played softly you could hear it and enjoy it but we didn 't have to yell at each other across the table. Stayed at a lovely little B&B, La Sauternaise, 10m across the road and it was great too. If you go, I also suggest booking a tour at Chateau D 'Yquem we missed out. We didn 't know we were going to be in Sauternes and when I looked it was too late to book a visit (earliest appointment available was for after we left France. If we 're ever anywhere near that part of France again, I 'd go out of my way to have that meal again!

A beautiful address of the beautiful work a beautiful frame

Delicious meal, service without false note. discretion and reactivity during the evening. autonomous, efficient, meticulous and conscious of its installation at its departure. I took part in 2 baptisms and a marriage perfectly made by the inn of the caterers of the vine, I highly recommend! Bravo to the whole team.
