Let Me Organize your Bordeaux Wine Tour

"My wine tours are personalized and tailored to your preferences"

I’ll guide you through the true essence of the region, so that you can take home a wine experience of a lifetime and feel confident when ordering a Bordeaux wine in the future.

Which appellations, chateaux and wines to prioritize when in Bordeaux for just a couple of days? When is it best to go? How much time is necessary in each wine district? Is there time to see more than one wine district in a day? How to avoid tourist traps or large groups of tourists? Is the level of information adapted to us? How can we meet the people who actually craft the wine? How to get back and forth from the vineyards?

If you’re asking yourself some of these questions, you’ll be glad to leave it all up to an experienced, local guide. I like to listen to my clients’ wishes and priorities before I set up my tours: they’re organized, private, bespoke, relaxed, fun, informative, personal and - of course - tasty!

Whether you’re interested in old cellars, modern architecture, prestigious chateaux, small family-owned wineries, hidden gems, premium wines tastings, unveiling great value wines, barrel samplings, picturesque landscapes, food and wine pairing, winemaking itself, delicious local food, learning the art of wine tasting or blending, the work in the vineyard, organic or biodynamic viticulture, shipping wine home, bold, fruity, or tannic wines, red, white, dry, sweet, or sparkling wines, just let me know, and I’ll curate the optimal Bordeaux wine tour for you.

Discover Bordeaux’s Vineyards

The famous Bordeaux “wine country” may be small on a world scale, but zoom in on the map and you’ll realise that there’s so much going on within its borders.

The area is subdivided into 65 bigger and smaller appellations (wine districts), each with their own soil, micro-climate and strict rules of production.

Nearly 10,000 vineyards produce wine here, united by a common purpose: their commitment to making the best possible wine with the means and natural resources they have at their disposal.

in Bordeaux

You can imagine that, among the 10,000 producers here, wineries vary greatly in style and character. Some of them may be quite modest and unfamed, but they’re truly delightful and worth your while. Moreover, they produce wines that you would most likely not find in your own country – often at great value.

Certain estates aren’t open for tours and tastings. Some don’t accommodate visitors just dropping in. Some are well established when it comes to wine tourism and offer fun or interesting experiences besides the usual tour and tasting.

Still others are so famous that you need to contact them far in advance – or know them personally - to arrange to step over their hallowed entrance. It’s invaluable to plan your wine tour with a well-connected Bordeaux expert who can secure access to the châteaux that offer a first-rate experience.
