Tasting of Bordeaux red wines, wine and charcuterie pairings
Overview
Explorer of the Bordeaux vineyards in a 2cv and professional wine taster graduated from the University of Wine, I like to share my passion for wine!
Sharing and conviviality will be there and as Georges Brassens said "The best wine is not necessarily the most expensive, but the one we share"
The tasting course is accessible to all, it is an initiation to desacralize the world of wine.
Our tasting room is located in the Bastide district on the right bank of Bordeaux, 200 meters from the majestic Pont de Pierre, one of the most beautiful monuments in Bordeaux, listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Our tasting room is located in a typical Bordeaux building, with the charm of stone and has a small private courtyard.
This district in full revival mixes both a bohemian and industrial spirit in full metamorphosis, and is full of unusual places like Darwin or the Botanical Garden.
What's Included
- Snacks Plank of charcuterie
- Alcoholic beverages 4 glasses of wine

What To Expect
Discover the essence of Bordeaux red wines during an intimate and educational tasting, designed to awaken your senses. Bordeaux is known for its reds, but few grasp all the richness. You will learn to taste like an Ace while exploring the differences between the Left Bank (Structured Sauvignon Cabernet of the Médoc) and the Right Bank (Soft and fruity Merlot of Saint-Émilion).
Guided by Cécilia, certified expert, you will taste four carefully chosen wines – single varieties or blends – from family estates in organic or Grands Crus, as well as a mystery glass and a mature wine to discover the ageing Bordeaux. You will understand the impact of grape varieties, terroirs and winemaking choices on aromas and textures.
Each wine is accompanied by a delicatessen, in accordance with its flavors. You will leave with a personalized tasting booklet
Depending on the season, the tasting takes place in our stone room, private courtyard or cellar. Wines available for sale. We adapt to white lovers!
Write to us before booking in Japanese and Korean depending on the day (5 days a week)
