Overview

NICE & ENJOYABLE WALKING TOUR TO EXPLORE THE CHARMING NEIGHBOURHOOD OF BORDEAUX WITH OUR IN-HOUSE SOMMELIER WITH WINE & CHEESE TASTING.

This tour is designed by our in-house Sommelier & Wine Expert. He will take you on a stroll through the UNESCO wine merchant streets, many of which are 300 years old. We will walk for almost an hour to discover the neighbourhood of Chartrons and the riverside of Bordeaux while learning about the different grape varieties used in Bordeaux, the important wine regions, how to pick up a bottle in a supermarket or in a restaurant, what is the 1855 classification, how to read a label like a professional, the historical monuments of the district and much more!
At the end of the tour we will put all the theoretical knowledge into practical “learning by tasting”… Cheers!!
