| Bordeaux Wine Tours 4 Nights 5 Days |
Most Bordeaux wine tour operators offer similar packages, offering visits to well known and favorite chateaux’s, meals and lodging, ranging from three to six days. One of my favorite packages are Bordeaux Wine Tours 4 Nights 5 days which comes from Off the Beaten Path. Here is a description of what they have to offer and a synopsis of their offering.
Bordeaux Wine Harvest & Culinary
Walking Tour Summary
Our fully escorted five day Bordeaux wine harvest and culinary tour is a unique and rare opportunity for travelers to go behind the scenes of the exclusive world of Bordeaux wine and experience the excitement and activities of the annual "Harvest" period first-hand! There is no better way to discover, learn about and grow one’s appreciation for Bordeaux wine than being in the fields, walking from one historical estate to another, through some of the world’s most famous first growth vineyards and meeting and talking with the producers, cellar masters and pickers themselves while they are in full harvest mode. Unlike other wine producing regions of the world, Bordeaux is a one-of-a-kind place, an "invitation only" world where visits and tasting are by appointment only, and reserved exclusively for those with privileged relationships and connections, especially during the harvest. During our small group, Bordeaux wine harvest and culinary walking tour programs, our guests experience the privilege of our relationships, as they are welcomed to exclusive first growth producers as a group of friends, to learn about the families behind the names, differing trade and vinification practices and the reasons that still make Bordeaux wines the most distinct and special wines of the world!
