Excursion

Half-day in the vineyard - off the beaten track

From 80€ / pers

Book your trip with a green tourist agency!

Explore the vineyards of Bordeaux and visit two wineries off the beaten track: one in the prestigious Pessac-Léognan appellation and the second in the beautiful Entre-deux-Mers region.

  • Visit of a winery in the Pessac-Léognan appellation
  • Visit of a winery in the Entre-deux-Mers region
  • Two wine tastings (5 wines minimum)
  • A friendly and local guide
  • A recent 9-seater minivan
  • Comments in English and French
  • Green tourist agency

1:55pm: Meet in front of the Cité du Vin (Wine Museum). Your guide will welcome you and explain the day's programme.

2pm: departure.

The half-day tour begins with a visit to a certified organic Pessac-Léognan winery. You'll learn how the wines of this region are made, visit the vat room and barrel cellar, before tasting the estate's wines (red and white, 2 minimum).

Then we'll cross the Garonne river to discover another part of the Bordeaux vineyard: Entre-deux-Mers. Nicknamed "Little Tuscany", this is a hilly region that produces a wide variety of wines. You will visit a second wine estate, followed by a tasting of at least 3 wines (different colors).

At the end of the day, you'll have discovered a little-visited part of the vineyard and enjoyed wines that are very different from one another. An excellent way to discover the diversity of the Bordeaux vineyard!

6.15pm: return to Bordeaux (+/- 15 min.).

 

Depending on local requirements, the programme may be modified.

2 half day wine tours

We liked the first trip to entre du mers so much we booked a second trip to St emilion. Emmanuel is engaging, informative and relaxed. He has taken care to choose wineries that are varied and deeply interesting—-from the wine-making itself to the embrace of organic and bio dynamic philosophies. The logistics were flawless and the van comfortable. The meeting place at La Cité du vin is easy to find and not crowded. We highly recommend Vert Bordeaux for a personalized small group tour!

A fantastic adventure, off the beaten track!
Tom Townson 10/10/2023
Emmanuel was an excellent guide with a thorough knowledge and understanding of the wine producing regions around Bordeaux. His manner was easy going and made the group feel comfortable asking any type of questions. This trip appealed as something a little different from the trips out to Medoc and St Emilion as excellent as they are. It was brilliant, visiting two organic vineyards in two very different areas producing wonderful wines. A great afternoon out!

Wine and chateau - perfect for a short time in Bordeaux

Emmanuel is passionate, friendly & really knowledgeable. I was only in Bordeaux for a short time and wanted to experience the wineries and see a bit more of Bordeaux. This tour did not disappoint. I would highly recommend it to anyone wanting to learn more about wine, the French culture and also to see a bit more of noncommercialised areas of Bordeaux. A beautiful experience
