The tasting journey continues with a selection of lesser-known white Bordeaux wines, paired with a carefully chosen cheese board that highlights local flavors. The experience then concludes with a deeper exploration of Bordeaux’s renowned red wines, where you’ll learn what distinguishes the region’s famous appellations in an approachable and engaging way.

This tour is perfect for anyone who wants to discover Bordeaux beyond the labels – connecting the city’s history, culture, and wines in an authentic and relaxed atmosphere.
