Depart Bordeaux at 10:00 AM and journey by minivan to the beautiful town of Saint-Émilion, known for its vineyards and fabulous hills of 1,000 castles. Learn what makes Bordeaux wines so special as you drive through vineyards and wine estates where bold contemporary cellars compete with pure 18th-century classical buildings. Take a walking tour of the village with a tasting of famous Bordeaux canneles and authentic handmade Saint-Emilion macarons. Avail of the friendly hospitality and great wines of the region and visit two wonderful estates with tastings of 3 wines. Passion-driven owners and their staff welcome you with open arms to share family and local history. Hear about their terroirs, how wines are blended and the art of wine tasting. Take a short break with some free time for lunch. Marvel at the medieval atmosphere of the winding streets and preserved limestone buildings. Return to Bordeaux in the afternoon, returning at approximately 3:00 PM.
