ITINERARY

Embark on an exclusive wine-tasting journey through Bordeaux’s distinguished Graves and Sauternes regions, celebrated for their timeless heritage and refined wines. Your day begins with a hotel pickup, leading you through the historic Graves vineyards, renowned since the Middle Ages for their delicate reds, aromatic dry whites, and luscious sweet wines nurtured in the region’s unique graves soils.

Begin your discovery in the Pessac-Léognan appellation, home to some of Bordeaux’s most elegant Grand Crus Classés. Visit two prestigious estates where passion meets precision, and savor tastings that reveal the depth and balance of the terroir. Each sip unveils layers of history, craftsmanship, and the graceful minerality that defines the region.

For lunch, indulge in gourmet cuisine at a local restaurant or opt for a refined picnic amid the vines, surrounded by the peaceful beauty of the countryside. This interlude offers a moment to appreciate the slower rhythms of Bordeaux life, where time seems to flow with the wine itself.

In the afternoon, journey along the scenic Route du Sauternes, passing emblematic châteaux that crown this golden landscape. Visit a renowned estate for a final tasting of the legendary sweet wines of Sauternes, celebrated for their honeyed texture, floral aromas, and incomparable elegance. Conclude your day with a relaxing return to Bordeaux, enriched by a sensory experience of pure refinement and authenticity.
