“Sarah, our Wine Guide was very informative and she led us thru the wine making process and history of both Wineries/labels Baladoz and La Croizille while walking around the winery/visiting the cellar. We were the only 2 guests at agreed time, but tour still went ahead in English. We tasted 3 different labels and wines were very well made indeed. In their shop area they offer many wine accessories and good selection of wine labels which you can purchase on the spot. Would strongly recommend.”

13.Saint Emilion Half-Day Trip with Wine Tasting & Winery Visit from Bordeaux

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 1,034 reviews · 4 hours (approx.) · from $133.02

Half-day Saint-Émilion trip from Bordeaux with a grand cru winery visit, red wine tasting, and a UNESCO village walk, in a small group.

“Pick up is a bit of a miss since dozen of other tours pick up from the same location. Tour was private and small. You do an interesting wine tour but our tour guide at the winery didnt speak good english and was insulted when I gently told him that “barrels” and “bagels” were pronounced differently. Basically the whole tour he kept talking about “bagels.” After the tour you go to a wine shop and they make you sample wine and seem to really try to make you buy bottles. The tour felt like a cash grab. Not recommended.”
