Tasting in a very warm atmosphere with Nicolas ☀️
The tasting experience was vibrant and rich in discoveries! Nicolas was an extraordinary host, with extensive knowledge about the wines of the region and beyond.
In terms of quantity, we had enough wine and cheese to enjoy the tasting until we were full.
We highly recommend it! 🍷☀️

Exciting tasting in the heart of Bordeaux
A magnificent experience with Jon who captivated my girlfriend and me. As a beginner in wine, we learned a lot about the steps of discovering a wine. An adventure that awakens all the senses. The advice and anecdotes were just as high quality as the wines and cheeses we tasted. All of this with humor and good cheer :) This activity exceeded our expectations and was clearly worth the price. I recommend it for anyone coming to Bordeaux. Looking forward to repeating the experience and extending it with a vineyard visit. Thank you!

I had the most amazing experience
I had the most amazing experience at Bordeaux wine trails for my wine pairing class! I took a class with Margot and she was very patient and kind and she went to the extent of helping me carry my luggage to the nearest Uber train station as I attended the class alone. I was treated with so much kindness and love and I would highly recommend border wine trails to anyone who’s looking for a fabulous wine pairing class.
Operator response

Fun & Flavorful Wine Tour
I had a fantastic time on the Wine Bar Crawl with Bordeaux Wine Trails, led by John. It was the perfect mix of fun and learning - not just about the Wine but also about the city of Bordeaux.
We visited several charming wine bars, each with its own unique vibe and welcoming hosts.
John was an exceptional guide. He walked us through the basic of wine tasting in a way that was approachable and enjoyable, emphasizing that Wine should be savoured in the moment rather than overthinking it.
The wines were paired with delicious local snacks- cheeses, charcuterie, speads, etc. All top-notch!
My highlight of this tour, was trying natural wines, which was a first for me. I was pleasently surprised by their character and depth.
Whether you're new to wine or a seasoned sipper, i highly recommend joining one of John's tours.
Great vibes, excellent wines and new things to learn along the way!

Very grapeful for the wisdom
Entering the wine cellar was a cool intro and then the wines and pairings came. A large map shows the sub-regions of Bordeaux which were explained.
As a novice wine drinker I appreciated the skills taught to identify the wines as well as Cheese and chocolate pairings (some worked/didn't work for different people in my group's palates). The experienced wine enthusiasts in my group learned alot too!
I would recommend this workshop.
Operator response
Thank you for the great feedback! 😊We're happy to hear the workshop offered something for everyone, from fun pairings to new tasting skills.
Hope to see you again soon! 🍇
