Graves and Sauternes Full Day Private Wine Tour

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!
