Your professional tour guide is flexible with your itinerary, but will include the most famous landmarks for you to see. You will have approximately 2 hours for a leisurely walking tour that is set at your pace. After your time in Bordeaux, you will depart for 2 of Bordeaux's wine-producing areas.

Pomerol was first cultivated by the Romans during their occupation of the area. Up until the early 20th century, the area was known mostly for its white wine production. The famous wines of Pomerol have a high composition of Merlot in their blends, and are considered the gentlest and least tannic and acidic of the Bordeaux wine region. Cabernet Franc, known in this area as Bouchet, is the second leading grape and helps to contribute to the dark, deep coloring that is typical of Pomerol wines. Due to the reduced tannins found in these wines, they can typically be drunk much younger than other red Bordeaux.

The Medoc wine region includes the four famous communes of St. Estephe, Pauillac, St. Julien, and Margaux. Without a doubt, this is one of the most popular Bordeaux wine regions. All the wine made here is red, and the main grape variety used is the Cabernet Sauvignon.
