To start, you will go with your guide for a walking tour of Saint-Emilion village (classified as a UNESCO World Heritage Site), and its historical monuments.
Then you will visit and enjoy a tasting of 3 wines of a Saint-Emilion-Grand-Cru Château. You will learn about the terroir, the history and the art of blending which make this appellation so unique, in a very convivial way.
There, you will enjoy a picnic lunch including local, artisanal, tasty products: a selection of cheeses and “charcuterie”, a typical basque dish, and a fruit dessert, accompanied by a glass of the estate wine.
In the afternoon, you will go on the left bank to the famous Médoc region, for a visit and wine tasting (3 wines) in a Château Grand Cru Classé from Margaux appellation (1855 classification).
Then your guide will make a stop by the legendary Château Margaux, an opportunity to take some pictures, before heading to your third Château for a final wine tasting (3 different wines).
