What to expect

Experience the heart of Bordeaux’s famous wine region, where many vineyards carry the Graves and Pessac Léognan AOC designation. Each of these local wineries produces vintages with distinct soil features backed by a long winemaking heritage.

Your first major stop on this personalized Graves and Sauternes tour will be in one of the local estates for a visit and wine tasting at a Grand Cru Chateau. You will be greeted at the Chateau and will get to tour and taste different vintages in this carefully selected domain. Upon arrival in the wine region, you'll stop at a second carefully selected winery among Chateau Haut Bailly, Château La Louvière, Chateau Olivier, Chateau Carbonnieux, and more. Then, you'll have the opportunity to taste the different wines of the estate including white and red wines.

After free time for lunch in Martillac or surroundings you'll head to the Sauternes wine region of Bordeaux. Your guide will take you to one of the most prestigious wineries in the Sauternes area, known for its sweet white wines. Upon arrival, you will visit the installations but the most important will be to understand the wine-making process as it differs completely from that of other wines.
