Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot in Harmony
Your private group will travel just south of the city of Bordeaux, with a WSET Level 3 Awarded Guide (With Distinction), to Pessac-Léognan and the historic Graves region — home to some of the most elegant and compelling wines in all of Bordeaux. Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot share the stage, joined by exceptional dry white wines that are among the finest in France. Less traveled than the Médoc or Saint-Émilion, the region lies close to the city yet is quietly distinct. Your guide will help you discover a side of Bordeaux that many visitors miss, and to return home with stories and insights well beyond the usual wine-tour script.
You’ll explore a selection of thoughtfully chosen estates, visiting vineyards, vat rooms, and cellars, discovering how gravelly soils and meticulous winemaking give rise to wines of balance, aromatic complexity, and remarkable food-friendliness.
Tastings will include both reds and whites, offering a broader perspective on Bordeaux than many visitors expect. From structured yet polished reds to vibrant, mineral-driven whites, the diversity of the region will be clear.
Less visited than the Médoc yet equally rich in history, Pessac-Léognan and Graves offer a more intimate, nuanced experience — perfect for those looking to deepen their understanding of Bordeaux beyond the most famous names.
Pricing shown is per private group of up to four guests; up to two additional guests may be added at €100 each. Pricing is adjusted automatically on the booking calendar based on the number of persons in your group .
