09:15am: Departure from the Bordeaux Tourist Office by coach

Our day tour leaves in the morning to visit a Grand Cru Classé of the appellation château Balestard La Tonnelle, a good example of the modernity included in the traditional wineries of Saint-Emilion.

After the first tour and tasting, it is time to move on to Château Haut-Sarpe. This magnificent estate is one of the only one in Bordeaux that still provides accommodation and meals to pickers and a whole hamlet has been set aside for this purpose*. In the vintage dining hall visitors have lunch consisting in a buffet of fresh local products and snacked meat. Look at the reviews, it is a great moment of the day!

*During your visit, ask Xavier to show you Glou-Glou, the town's minuscule nightclub.

The afternoon is devoted to the underground Saint-Emilion village by visiting the sites - including the monumental underground church and the hermitage; the monk Emilion lived there and gave his name to the town. Then visitors are free to roam around the village's steep streets to discover cloisters, chapels, wash houses, intimate small squares, etc. at their own pace. There is almost too much to take in!

06:15pm: drop-off to the Bordeaux Tourist Office.

I booked online and got the tickets by email straight away. The tour is very good, pick up from Bordeaux centre. We visited 2 châteaux for wine tasting and lunch in the 2nd one. Very good food and wine. The visit to Saint Emilion centre with our tour leader was very interesting. Thank you Frédéric

Kanako IMASATO 09/01/2024
Thank you very much for a wonderful experience. It was interesting to learn about the different types of grapes, the quality of the wine in relation to the land, and the grading of the wines. We were also particularly interested in the history of Saint-Emilion, the village tour, and the visit to the underground church.
