Thanks to the proximity of the Pessac-Léognan vineyards, you will enjoy an escape through “Les Crus Classés de Graves”, based around food and wine pairings. This beautiful ‘terroir’, the historic birthplace of the Bordeaux vineyard, produces red and dry white wines that can be served with all kinds of dishes. In a friendly and casual atmosphere you will visit 2 wine estates combined with wine tastings and a friendly lunch! You will be back to Bordeaux by 3:00 pm, just in time to discover the wonders of the city. Full-day guided coach tour leaving from Bordeaux.

Visit the Cité du Vin (audio-guided tour+wine tasting) then take a 1.5 hour cruise trip on the Garonne. Accompanied by a guide, taste two wines from the region and discover the fascinating history of the Bordeaux waterfront, where the wine trade and the Garonne were so intimately linked.
