Join me to visit the fabulous wine region of Bordeaux and gain a deep understanding of the region's famous appellations from the soils, to the making of wine, the different vintages and the often confusing classification systems. I have worked closely with these châteaux and their teams for many years, and those longstanding relationships truly set my tours apart in the region. Thanks to these trusted connections, I’m able to offer travelers a more personal, seamless, and unforgettable experience while enjoying the exceptional wines that Bordeaux is known for. As a true native, and passionate about wine, my personal network enables me to open doors and organise visits that truly go behind the scenes. Over ten years of experience in the wine tours business, I am a qualified Wine and Spirit tasting professional and have trained during my internship at Chateau Latour! I generally would advise visiting three châteaux per day of course the well-known impressive classified ones known throughout the world but also smaller family owned and run châteaux. I am a real 'people's person' and my approach as a guide enables me to share my passion and knowledge about wine and the Bordeaux vineyards in a professional yet friendly way, the aim being to make sure my clients leave with an unforgettable experience! I love nature and the Bordeaux area offers a wide range of beautiful spots where I enjoy walking, cycling, swimming in the ocean, even scuba diving! As a serious 'foodie' I will also enjoy helping you discover the best selection of delicious local dishes including some of the 1200 different types of French cheeses (not for the faint hearted!) and advise you on how to best match wine & food! Being an anglophone enables me to better communicate and understand your needs and build an individual itinerary that suits you. Enjoying wine is above all a personal experience. With me, you will learn about the way you appreciate wine in a fun, friendly and innovative way that will perhaps change the way you think about it forever! I look forward to meeting you! Emmanuelle Totally fluent in English (I lived in London for 20 years) Ecole du Vin (Maison du Vin de Bordeaux): practical and technical tasting certificates. WSET level 2 and 3 Red Cross First Aid Certification I do not have any restrictions in regard to my guiding, I can offer a full range of experiences.

What a fantastic day exploring with our guide, Emmanuelle F. Her communication with booking my off the beaten path itinerary before our trip, and her reconfirmation of everything made me feel really confident that we picked the right guide. As soon as we met her we knew we’re going to have the best day. Her English is perfect and having her by our side to translate French for us was so great. I recommend her 1000%.!

Emannuelle is absolutely amazing- she is the perfect guide for a tour in Bordeaux. She worked with us to tailor a day that included some tastings we had already booked but also she had a ton of fun suggestions and we ended up visiting a few small local vineyards that we never would have known about, and they were the highlight of our time in Bordeaux. Emmanuelle is knowledgable, interesting, and FUN! You will not regret booking her service to explore the wines of Bordeaux

What a perfect way to experience St Émilion! Emmanuelle took us to Château Taillefer in Pomerol and Château Franc-Mayne in St Émilion. We had a wonderful rooftop lunch overlooking the vineyards of St Émilion. At Château Franc-Mayne we had the opportunity to see the underground passages left from the limestone quarries and hear a bit about this region's interesting history. Emmanuelle is an insightful guide and went out of her way to make our day a memorable experience. I can recommend this tour to anyone.

Emmanuelle was excellent. On time and far surpassed expectations. She is very very wine knowledgeable and knows the owners of multiple St. Emilion and Pomerol chateaus. She put us all day at the right time and right place. She is a jewel. We will use her again when we come back. Extremely personable.
