Tour of the Cognac Region

Catherine provided us with a fabulous tour of the Cognac region during our short visit to Bordeaux. Her knowledge of the history of the area, along with her insights into the wine and cognac areas, made the trip magical. She also provided us with some thoughtful gifts to welcome us to her city. I would strongly recommend Bacchus Tours if you are in the Bordeaux or Cognac area, and want to learn more about the region and its products.
