Itinerary
Your tour begins at a Bordeaux tasting room
Meet your English-speaking wine guide at the discreet tasting room near Pont de Pierre. Get settled, meet your small group, and preview Bordeaux’s main wine styles before the first pour.
Get oriented to Bordeaux in a quick map talk
Start with the big picture: left bank vs right bank, key grapes, and why “appellation” matters. This fast primer makes the later tastings click, even if you’re a total beginner.
Learn a simple tasting method you can reuse
Practice sight, swirl, and aroma with clear cues for acidity, tannin, and body. Your guide gives you easy vocabulary that sounds natural, so you can describe what you like without feeling stiff.
Taste two dry whites and spot the differences
Compare two Bordeaux whites while you learn how climate and soil shape freshness and texture. Pair with small bites and notice how food changes the finish and brings out hidden notes.
Taste three reds built on classic blends
Move into Bordeaux reds and learn what Cabernet and Merlot contribute to structure and flavor. Your guide shows you how to read the glass for balance, oak, and tannin in real time.
Test your palate with a mystery wine
Try a blind “mystery” pour and use aroma and structure to guess the style. It’s playful, but it locks in the tasting method and helps you trust your own senses.
Your tour ends inside the tasting room
Wrap with a quick recap and your take-home tasting booklet, so you can practice later. Leave knowing which Bordeaux styles you enjoy most and what to look for when ordering wine.
