Hello, My name is Berit and I'm an experienced and passionate wine guide. I would be absolutely thrilled to share some of the highlights of my amazing region and help bringing the somewhat complicated Bordeaux wine industry "down to earth" so that, when you leave Bordeaux, you'll know which of the Bordeaux districts to look out for. Find out what it is that YOU like. And in the process, visit some of our beautiful, historical chateaux. . . In 2000, my family and I moved from Paris to Bordeaux, right in the core of the famous wine district. I started my time in Bordeaux as an English teacher in Public Education, which reflects my natural inclination for adapting and sharing knowledge. Meanwhile, most of my free time was spent on wine school and tastings! What an adventure! Wine very quickly became my passion. I knew that I had to work with wine - one way or another. I soon got a job in one of the prestigious wineries in Bordeaux and loved it from day one. Best job ever! There's so much going on in the local wine region, and I found the need to work in several chateaux before I felt like a Bordeaux wine expert. This experience lead to my current inspiring job as a local wine guide, that allows me to combine a number of my favourite things: communication, encounters, languages, wine. . . Nothing is more rewarding than to offer my clients an unforgettable and personal experience in Bordeaux. All you need is to give me your priorities and wishes before I start planning. EVERY tour is tailor-made. I'm really looking forward to hearing from you… - Wine and Spirit Education Trust - WSET 3 - Ecole du Vin, CIVB (Bordeaux Wine School): practical and technical certificates - First Aid Certificate (Red Cross) - Business and Life Coach, Mediation (Paris) I am a wine guide. Although I know a lot about local history, I will not be able to guide you inside of the historical monuments with in-depth knowledge.

Overview of your Bordeaux tour

Embark on an unforgettable off-the-beaten-path wine adventure! Most people know, or have heard of, the Médoc and Saint-Emilion, but I’m here to show you that there’s much, much more to Bordeaux than the big, famous vineyards. Escape the crowds and discover hidden gems of the region with a passionate, experienced guide who brings the history, culture, and secrets of Bordeaux's wine heritage to life. Visit smaller, family-owned vineyards and boutique wineries, where you’ll taste exceptional, small-batch wines unavailable in many countries. Learn about terroir, unique winemaking techniques, and the stories behind each bottle, all while enjoying intimate, personalized experiences. Whether you’re a wine connoisseur or a curious newcomer, this tour offers a rare glimpse into Bordeaux’s authentic wine world, far beyond the typical tourist trails. Join me for an intimate, hands-on journey through Bordeaux's rich winemaking legacy!
