A van takes the group from central Bordeaux to Saint-Émilion, a medieval village listed by UNESCO and the place where Bordeaux winemaking started. The guide leads a walk through the village and its historic monuments before any glass is poured. The second half is a visit to a Château, where 3 wines are tasted with charcuterie and cheese. Along the way the guide explains what distinguishes the appellation: its grape varieties and the winemaking techniques used for its wines. Groups are small, and the guide takes questions on winemaking and tasting throughout.
