Every Company Has Specific Needs: Tailored Experiences at Château Gassies


A strategic seminar does not pursue the same objectives as a team-building session. Similarly, an incentive event responds to yet another set of goals. At Château Gassies, we offer three distinct formats designed to meet your expectations precisely.

Format 1: The Strategic Seminar Day



Who is it for?

This format is ideal for executive committees, management teams, and project groups.


Objective

The goal is to step back from day-to-day operations. Reflecting on strategy and making important decisions in a calm environment fosters focus.


Typical Schedule

  • Coffee welcome from 9:00 am

  • Morning work sessions

  • Business lunch

  • Afternoon work sessions

  • Gourmet break

  • Wrap-up and closing around 5:00 pm


The Château Gassies Advantage

Our setting encourages clear thinking without the usual office distractions. Your teams will remain fully focused on their objectives.


Capacity

We can accommodate up to 25 people.

Who is it for?

This format suits teams that need time to work in depth while building stronger connections.


Objective

The aim is to combine focused work sessions with convivial moments. This approach strengthens relationships while making progress on strategic topics.


Typical 2-Day Schedule

Day 1

  • Arrival and check-in in the afternoon

  • Work session in the late afternoon

  • Friendly dinner and informal exchanges


Day 2

  • Breakfast at the château

  • Morning work sessions

  • Lunch

  • Continued work sessions or a team-building activity (visit to a wine estate, discovery of the local heritage)

  • Departure in the late afternoon


The Château Gassies Advantage

On-site accommodation avoids additional travel. This allows your team to remain in a focused environment. Informal moments, meals, and evenings together naturally encourage conversation and strengthen team cohesion.


Capacity

We can host up to 14 guests with on-site accommodation.


Format 3: The Incentive Team-Building Experience


Who is it for?

This format is perfect for teams you wish to reward, motivate, or bring together through a memorable shared experience.


Objective

The goal is to strengthen connections, celebrate achievements, and offer a unique experience that leaves a lasting impression.


Typical Program (1 or 2 Days)

  • Tailor-made team-building activities: wine tastings in local châteaux, discovery of the region, gastronomic experiences, collaborative challenges

  • Convivial moments designed for informal exchanges

  • Option to include a short work session if needed

  • Exceptional meals featuring local and seasonal products


The Château Gassies Advantage

We are more than a traditional seminar venue. Our network of trusted partners allows us to create unique and authentic experiences your teams will not find anywhere else.
