Discover the secrets of winemaking in the region and sample some of the finest wines in France. Visit family-run wineries, learn about the history of the wine industry in Dordogne, and take in the stunning scenery along the way. With a personalized itinerary tailored to your preferences, this private tour is the perfect way to experience the beauty and flavors of Dordogne.
A Full Day Private Tour to discover the wines of Dordogne
Take part in this small group private Dordogne wine tour departing from Trémolat (pick up in the vicinity is possible) to discover local wines of the area. First, we will come and pick you up at your accommodation in Trémolat or surrounding area. Then, meet your English speaking driver/guide who will introduce you to the itinerary and program of the day. Finally, board your premium air-conditioned minivan that can take up to 8 persons.
Departing from Trémolat, this day trip to the Dordogne wine area of France will have you first travel on small country side roads that will enable you to admire the landscape, pass through historic small towns and traditional villages as you drive along the Dordogne River.
Your first stop on the way will be in the Bergerac wine producing area. Here, participate in a visit and a commented wine tasting session. The local wines here are called Pecharmant. This little known appellation of the Bergerac wine region is famous for producing full bodied red wines that are made from a blend of Merlot, Malbec (also known locally as Cot) and both Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc grapes.
This is a unique opportunity for you as you will be tasting wines that are considered to be of higher quality than the average Bergerac wines, considered as more rustic!
Enjoy some free time for personal discovery and lunch in Bergerac
After your visit, your driver/guide will drop you off in Bergerac historic center. The city center is classified as 'Town of Art & History' with its charming small streets, half timbered houses with their Gothic architecture. Your guide will also certainly point out the location of the statue of Cyrano de Bergerac where it will be time for a great photo opportunity. The town and the region are also famous for the local food & wine and so you will have some free time for lunch and personal discovery in Bergerac.
Take part in another wine tasting session in the afternoon
After lunch, we will take you to another local winery of the area so that you may further understand that type of wines that are made in the area. Typically, we will include the visit and tasting in a family owned winery as this is always a much more interesting experience especially for those who would like to know a bit more about wine making in the French region. After the visit of the winery and a commented wine tasting session, we will return to Trémolat.

What type of wine is Bergerac?
The Bergerac wine region is located in the South West part of France in the Dordogne area. The wine region is composed of 17 appellations of which the most famous are Bergerac, Pécharmant, Duras or Monbazillac. Our Dordogne wine tour will focus on the Bergerac and Pécharmant appellations. Bergerac wines can be red, white or rosé. The grape varieties used for Bergerac wines are similar to those that can be found in neighbouring Bordeaux and this is especially true for Merlot that is more widely planted than the Cabernet's.
Pécharmant wines are red wines that are ripe and robust made from a similar blend as in Bordeaux the four authorized grape varieties being Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Cot and Merlot. Due to a 'terroir' made up of sand, gravel and deep clay known as 'Tran', the wines have a very specific taste. They are strong, generous with intense aromas and can be laid down for a few years. -

Yeas, absolutely. If you have some wineries that you know and would like to visit, reach out to our team of travel experts and they will make the required reservations if available at time of booking. -
