Experience the 7000 châteaux in Bordeaux | wine tour

Share/like this post:

The châteaux in Bordeaux are amazing, sometimes even spectacular. At least some of them. Others are more discreet. But all 7000 wine estates in Bordeaux are allowed to call themselves “château”. On this tour you will not see all 7000, but quite a few.

Now, you don’t go to Bordeaux just to look at the château. For you (and for us), the wines are probably more important. And on this tour there will be wines you probably don’t drink so often. Some of them are difficult to get hold of and some of them have rather expensive price tags. But as a wine lover you will want to taste them and the best place to do it is in Bordeaux, for instance accompanying our luxurious lunches, often “at home” at some of these beautiful châteaux.

We will see different aspects of Bordeaux on the tour. The big and prestigious châteaux and also the smaller ones, less famous but equally quality conscious. In the evenings, you will enjoy Bordeaux, France’s most elegant city. The tour takes place in late April when the weather can be like a nice summer day and the vine buds are bursting. Read more on this fantastic spring wine tour to Bordeaux.

(And if you happen to read Swedish you can get a taste of it in our book on Bordeaux and its wines.)
