We drove to two family run wineries for a tour of the facilities and a comprehensive explanation of the wine making process. It was perfect timing as they were in the middle of harvesting the grapes. We enjoyed wine tasting at both locations, with a delicious accompaniment at the second. We were also given a brief walking tour of Saint Emillion. Our tour guide, Francois, was a professional sommelier and was incredibly knowledgeable about wines specifically and the French wine industry in general. His expertise and enthusiasm made the afternoon a most memorable and pleasant experience.

Our half-day winery tour to Saint-Emilion was absolutely fantastic. Lola was an incredible and knowledgeable guide and just an absolutely joyful person - we could not have had a better guide. We learnt so much about the wine and history of the area. We loved the two wineries we visited and the time exploring Saint-Emilion. The tour was nicely paced and the snacks at the second winery (thanks to Lola) were excellent. A really memorable day.
