Saint-Emilion Walking Tour and 2 Wine Tastings from Bordeaux

Learn the secrets of Saint-Émilion’s famous red wines, the importance of terroir and the art of producing Grand Cru wines on a guided tour of the winery. After strolling the vineyards and peeking into the barrel room, head to the tasting room to sample a variety of fine wines. Continue to the hilltop, UNESCO-listed village of Saint-Émilion, and soak up the atmosphere on a walking tour, admiring the medieval architecture, maze of cobbled lanes and spectacular views over the surrounding vineyards. Make one more stop before heading back to Bordeaux—at a family-run winery, where the wine tasting is paired with a selection of regional cheeses and cured meats during an apéritif experience.
