This expertly guided experience includes pre-booked visits to two carefully selected châteaux with expert-led wine tastings, free time in the UNESCO World Heritage village of Saint-Émilion, and seamless hotel pickup from Bordeaux.

Explore Médoc and Saint-Émilion in One Exclusive Day
This private dual-region wine tour offers a unique opportunity to compare Cabernet Sauvignon-dominant Médoc wines with Merlot-based Saint-Émilion wines in a single, comprehensive day. Your knowledgeable English-speaking guide shares fascinating insights into the winemaking process, terroir differences, and classification systems as you journey through enchanting vineyard landscapes.

Visit prestigious estates in the Médoc appellations such as Margaux or Pauillac, then cross to the Right Bank to discover Saint-Émilion's clay and limestone terroir. Each château visit includes guided tours of vineyards and cellars followed by expertly commented tastings designed to deepen your appreciation of the intricate flavors, aromas, and structures unique to each region.
