Bordeaux, the fairy tale, and the real story | wine tour

Share/like this post:

Tasting wines and drinking wines in the region where they are made is always different from doing it at home. Yes, you are influenced by the atmosphere, seeing the vineyards out there, from the tasting room or, as we are in Bordeaux, from the chateau dining room where we are having our lunch.

“Château” makes you think of fairy tales and sometimes Bordeaux feels like that, some of the chateaux are sumptuous. But we must not forget that the Bordeaux producers are also farmers, just like in all wine regions. Admittedly, some of them with more money than others.

Exploring the region on this wine tour is a very special experience.

Come and discover Bordeaux with us.

PS: We have written a book about Bordeaux, and have been travelling there since 1986. Can you find a better guide and tour operator?
