Overview of your Bordeaux tour

I would customise a beautiful private tour for you to discover the vineyards of Sauternes and Barsac widely known for their sweet white wines of the famous classification of 1855 and which the French often pair with cheese, chocolates and foie gras. ​ We will stop for an incredible panoramic view of the area, walk through the little centre of the Medieval village of Cadillac. Driving through the beautiful wine region of Sauternes and enjoying lunch in a tasty restaurant with view on the vineyards. The tour will always include private visits in English of charming and prestigious Grand Cru Classe Chateaux of Sauternes and Barsac. All my tours outside the city are accompanied by a PRIVATE DRIVER so I can be 100% with you telling you about the area. My only goal is that you enjoy the most your day in the middle of the beautiful Bordeaux vineyards and its wine chateaux!
