History, wine, and fun

Colleen Wagaman 09/30/2026

My husband and I enjoyed our tour. We had a good, friendly group and enjoyed that we visited small, family-owned wineries. Some grapes had just been harvested at one so we got to see them go through part of the process where they were de-stemmed and prepared for the next steps. We sampled wine at both wineries and ordered bottles to be shipped home. The owners were very cordial and engaging. We did not get kicked out when my husband asked about "screw caps". Yes, he was joking. We were running a bit short on time when we got to Saint-Emilion, but we made the best of it and bought more wine. Sonia, our guide was very friendly and knowledgeable. We are glad we took the tour.

Great half day trip!

Booking with Sonia was so streamlined. She was very accommodating with the changes we required. Vincent was amazing and I’m so glad we were able to make this trip and explore Saint-Emilion. We booked a private tour so we’re picked up at our hotel where he reviewed a map of the places we were visiting and the types of wines.He is so knowledgeable on wine and the area.He was efficient and very caring. Wineries we visited were so educational and gorgeous. Everyone we met on this tour was amazing. Highly recommend this tour . Vincent is funny , well spoken and professional.
