My husband and I have done several wine tastings but this one is our favorite! In the session, you learn about the different Bordeaux regions, try to identify wine aromas, taste Bordeaux wines and finally make your own blend of wine. The two brothers who lead it are warm, welcoming, fun to chat with and definitely contribute to the experience. Definitely memorable and would highly recommend. Plus, it is pretty great to come home with your own blend of Bordeaux wine!These brothers are great. They love wine and have an extensive knowledge for the history of Bordeaux wine and wine tasting.

These brothers are great. They love wine and have an extensive knowledge for the history of Bordeaux wine and wine tasting. It was fun and interactive. It included learning about aromas, tasting (with local snacks), and then creating your own bottle of wine. The brothers speak English and French, and the wine shop is well set-up. They also ship wines almost anywhere and most you can’t get in the US easily or for the surprisingly low price for amazing local wines. Good solo (which I did) or for groups, which I was a part of. Very fun, and only a few hours of your day.This tour was one of the best experiences we’ve had in Bordeaux and our time in our time abroad! Not only was it educational and engaging, but Pierre and Jeremy were super charismatic and welcoming!

This tour was one of the best experiences we’ve had in Bordeaux and our time in our time abroad! Not only was it educational and engaging, but Pierre and Jeremy were super charismatic and welcoming! This is great because you not only get a winetasting and get to experience Bordeaux wines, but you also get to take a great souvenir home! The amount of thought that went into this experience was palpable! The brothers put a lot of thought into making the equipment that is used for the winemaking process, making this experience very unique. We cannot give higher praise and everyone should do this!The create your own Bordeaux wine experience was one of the best experiences we had in Bordeaux.

The create your own Bordeaux wine experience was one of the best experiences we had in Bordeaux. Pierre's pashion for wine and innovation turned this experience into an unforgettable one. We received lessons on different wine aromas, what to expect from the different Bordeaux wine regions, and tastings of Bordeaux blends and the single varietals we used to create our own wine. Truly a novel and inspiring experience. The hour and a half session flew by. We would do it all again in a heartbeat.Très bonne expérience ! Geoffroy nous a très bien expliqué les vins de Bordeaux suivi d’une très bonne dégustation de 3 vins ! Nous avons ensuite réaliser notre propre cuvée et assemblage avec Pierre ! de bons souvenirs
