Vine Escapes: Vinotherapy in Bordeaux, Les Sources de Caudalie02.05.07 |
Vinotherapy = Wine and Spa
Two of my very favorite pass times rolled up into one fine experience.
Amidst the vines of the Chateau Smith Haut Lafitte located near Bordeaux, the 1st Vinotherapie Spa created by CAUDALIE and ONLY spa on the grounds of Vineyard, offers a program of exclusive treatments based on the benefits of vines and grapes in an environment of rare beauty.

In order to be named a ’spa’ in France, you must have mineral springs or seawater treatments. Lucky for Caudalie, water is piped in from a hot spring 540 meters underground for treatments and the indoor mineral spring pool.

A purveyor to the science and art of antioxidant skin care, it was Caudalie that first discovered resveratrol (a polyphenol in red-wine grapes) to aid in slowing the aging process. Antioxidant rich treatments use polyphenols (taken from the grapeseeds) and resveratrol (obtained from the grape skins) to spur new cell growth and firm up skin. Viniferine (pulled from the sauvignon blanc vines and stalks) is used in another signature treatment named Vinoperfect facial, the ingredient has a brightening and lightening effect which is used to improve the skin tone and slow melanin production.

Les Sources de Caudalie has 49 guests rooms with scrumptious spa and dining packages to choose from. Truly, a special place amidst this lovely region of France.
