France · BORDEAUX WINE TOURS
23 tours
Bordeaux pours from eight thousand estates and the useful question is which appellation you spend the afternoon in.

Visit Bordeaux’s Wine and Trade Museum in historic cellars, then taste Merlot and Cabernet with clear explanations in English.
“This museum is full of information - jam packed, but it is all printed in folders or in little font on the wall. I imagine you could spend the allotted 2/3 hours, but we whizzed through in about 45 minutes, which was fine. It is basically two vaulted wine cellars, so it is a physically small space.
