Make Your Own Cuvée Of Bordeaux Wine

It was absolutely wonderful! I recommend as to do list while in Bordeaux. Atmosphere , teacher, wine was wonderful! I will do it again! Many merci again!

Such a fun and unique experience! As wine lovers, we learned a great deal about the various types of wine and the uniqueness of Bordeaux.

Highly recommended! Great opportunity to learn about this aspect of wine culture, especially coming from the US where wines are typically single varietals. Blending wasn't covered in any other wine tours or tastings we took in the two weeks we were in France. We took this tour near the end of our trip to France, and it was a good opportunity to review all of the information we learned about wine making and culture. Our host was very informative and English is his native language. We enjoyed meeting our fellow travelers, too.

It was an amazing experience. We learned a lot, had tons of fun tasting and creating our own bottle. This was definitely a highlight of our trip to Bordeaux and would highly recommend it to anyone who is visiting. The fact that now I get to bring home a bottle of "my own" wine is something I will always remember. Thank you for everything, it was amazing!

Wonderful experience for novices and experienced people alike. Fun environment with great education and conversation. Would recommend highly.

This was such a fun and memorable experience! It began with a guided tasting of Bordeaux wines, paired with an engaging overview of the region’s history, winemaking traditions, and tasting techniques. Our host, James, was welcoming, knowledgeable, and full of great stories that made the experience both educational and entertaining. We had a wonderful time getting to know our fellow wine lovers and blending our own creations. The highlight was bottling, labeling, and naming our personalized cuvée — a unique and special keepsake to bring home from Bordeaux!

James was excellent - very knowledgeable and informative. This activity far exceeded our expectations. Highly recommend!

This was a great experience. I am not a sommelier but I do love wine. This was a great experience. James was very knowledgeable about the wines of Bordeaux (and MORE). The make your own cuvee was definitely something worth doing once. It was great to see how the blending completely changes the wine. It was also interesting knowing which regions I would enjoy more based on my cuvee blend. Great Job!

This experience was not what was advertised. The title of the experience was making your own cuvée of wine. No cuvée was made. This was actually just a wine tasting with a lecture about Bordeaux wine making.

This experience is not as advertised. You do not make your own wine, and it is less than two hours long (not the 2.5 hours that is advertised). We got about three ounces of wine for three different type of wine. While it was informative and the wine we tasted was good, this experience is nothing like it is advertised.

The guides give you a history of the bordeaux wines as well as going into depth about why each wine tastes how it does. Everything is explained in a really interesting and fun way, and making our own wine with our new knowledge was such a fantastic experience. Highly recommend

Great event. We learned a lot and had a fun time. The instructor was great. He was super knowledgeable. Blending our own wine was super. It was fun to bring home a wine of our own creation.

This experience was one of the highlights of my trip! Pierre and Geoffroy are personable and very knowledgeable about the different wine regions in Bordeaux. I highly recommend this experience, you want be disappointed!

We had done several wine tours around Bordeaux but we still learned something new here! Guides were funny and wonderful. I would recommend the make your own bottle of wine as it was a fun and nice souvenir and didn’t take too long to make. I would do this experience again!

Excellent!! Learned about wine regions, aromas, and taste. The wine making was also a do not miss!! I highly recommend this for all even if you know wines.

Great value for money. Really enjoyable to have a tasting first then making your own wine. Both brothers presenting were very welcoming.

This was excellent from start to finish. Price vs Experience = excellent. This was one of the few things that is priced correct in France - not too expensive and not too cheap. The tasting was good, all 3 were good choices and had diversity. The blend of people showing up were great. The blind tasting was a good choice, we do this in North America. Making your own wine was fun and it was explained very well. I would say of everything it's hard to pick a weak point. They might add a 4th or 5th choice to making wine, a small percentage. For example, up to 10% petit verdot or pinot or gamay. It's so good, it's hard to find a negative.

This experience was above our expectations! These two brothers are so knowledgeable yet so fun! This time was about 3 hours yet it went so fast! I highly recommend it!!

This was the coolest experience. I wish every trip had something similar. I learned so much and even got to bring home wine that we made. This was the highlight of Bordeaux.

WOW! This was definitely the highlight of our trip! Not only did we get to learn about the wine regions in a fun & hands-on way, but we got to get creative and blend ourselves! I want to thank these two brothers for the craic (as we say in Ireland). Would highly highly recommend to anyone visiting Bordeaux!

This was an in-depth class in Bordeaux wines. It's not just a sip and dash. We learned about how to tell the difference between to various wines of the area with a guided tasting, then an assisted tasting, and then a blind tasting to give us a chance to use what we've learned. I feel a lot more confident about judging the Bordeaux wine I was drinking the rest of the trip. And then using the knowledge we acquired, it was fun to make our own bottle to our personal tastes.

We first did a wine tasting and learned about aspects of wines such as smell,taste, tannins etc. we then tried different types of wine and created our own bottle with specific percentages

A very personal experience. Learnt a lot about the region and tried some great wines. A real highlight of our trip.

Great time. Informative and entertaining few hours. Certainly not your short sharp tasting you tend to get in Bordeaux. 😁👍

What a fun experience we had with the wine tasting and make your own blend experience! We were one brother down but you wouldn’t have known. What an engaging experience full on fun and laughter and we definitely left with a better understanding of tasting. The accompanying cheese and meat was yum and paired well with the wines we were tasting. I’m not a massive red wine drinker and bought this for my partner as a Christmas present for our holiday but was thoroughly enjoyed by both of us. This would be a great introduction to Bordeaux and the wines in the area though we did this on our last night after doing a winery tour yesterday and it was still a great experience. Do yourself a favour and book this in if you are in Bordeaux.

This was by far the best thing we did in Bordeaux. Friendly, charming, funny, and informative. Choose this class -- if you like wine, you definitely won't regret it! Next time I'm in Bordeaux I'll be back for sure. Hopefully they can expand and offer a wider variety of classes on wine -- I'd do them all. Thanks for a fun and memorable afternoon! :)

We had a great tasting and education. Even though I have been to many wine tastings I still learned something. The visuals are really nice. The part where we made our own wine was fun and educational. I highly recommend this experience. The brothers are great ad the wine shop has a nice selection.

The experience was awesome! You can learning more here in 3 hours than from reading a 300 page book on wine. The brothers have amazing energy! After providing an overview of Left Bank/Right Bank/Entre-Deux-Mers and tasting basics, we proceeded to applying our skills in a blind tasting. Later, we got to make our own blend from three varieties. One thing I would suggest, is trying to smell and taste all 3 varieties side-by-side, as opposed to sequentially, because that will really allow you to understand how Cabernet Sauvignon gives the tannic structure to the wine, whereas Merlot/Cabernet Franc/Malbec allow you to balance acid and aromas, creating complexity. Overall, this experience is a Must Do in Bordeaux!

It was a delightful experience! The wine instructor was gummy and friendly and his English was excellent. We learned a lot and it was a treat to make our own bottle of wine.

When I had my own wine in my hands. Nice sensation! The brothers are very kind. They could tell a little more about their own family wine history.

Really fun activity. Very informative, good atmosphere and generous servings of the wine. Making a bottle at the end was a lot of fun and makes you think about the process of wine making. Highly recommend for an afternoon activity Thanks guys.

The brothers were AMAZING! They explained everything in details and a very good English and provided us a lot of insights on the best places in Bordeaux, they made the wine experience professionally, interesting and made us to have deeper look into the wine culture of Bordeaux! We tried three various wines with the most delicious meats and cheeses provided by the side, it was delicious! Moreover, they allowed us to mix different wines to make our own authentic wine which was a great addition. Definitely, would recommended to visit this place first thing in Bordeaux, as it is a great first step into Bordeaux culture. Thank you so much Pierre and Geoffrey, see you soon my friends!

We had an amazing time, expertly led by the two brothers! A fun afternoon, we highly recommend booking this if you are going to Bordeaux!

Learned so much from the brothers. It was very informative and a great venue. Highly recommend. Great wine selection as well !!!

Never been to a wine tasting experience where I learnt so much about the different wine making and tasting techniques. There’s a general wine tasting experience followed by the add-on of making our own bottle blend, and it was super fun to try. The wine shop downstairs has a good selection of decently-priced and good quality wines too.

This was an excellent experience. Both of the brothers were really knowledgeable and engaging. We sampled 3 wines with food, and we also made our own wine. You will learn how to taste and blend wine, so this is a great class if you're new to Bordeaux wine. Would recommend 100%

We spent an excellent afternoon at this establishment meeting new people and learning a lot about Bordeaux wines and also a bit about Bordeaux history. Absolutely worth the time to do this! Merci mille fois !

We spent an excellent afternoon learning about the West and East Bank , mixing of wines and tasting. Highly recommend .

Amazing experience. The brothers divide the afternoon into taking about the appellations of the region, the right way to taste wines (some myths were put to rest) and yes enjoyed some fine wines. The second part, we created our own blend of Bordeaux wine, corked and labeled bottle and ours to take home. Side note - great time selection in their shop.

Four friends on a France wine tour. This was a great instructional class to learn about wine tasting and wines in the Bordeaux region. We were also able to make our own blends. Hands down this is one of the best classes we have done. Casual, fun and friendly. The Two Brothers make you feel like family. Highly recommend!

Wow, I think we learned more about wine in this class than anywhere before. Part tasting then part making your own wine - this was such a fun and great experience. Such a cool opportunity to make and bottle your own wine blends! We look forward to tasting our wines and highly recommend this. We told everyone we met in Bordeaux after that they must go!

I am a lifelong lover of wine and spend much of my time visiting wineries and learning about wine. But I have never had the experience of making my own. The first half of the course one learns about Bordeaux wines, how to taste them and then sample them. For the second half of the course, one get to blend your own wine and bottle it. My wife and I made slightly different version of wine and cannot wait to do a blind tasting of them in a few months when they are ready, thank you guys for a very enjoyable afternoon. There is also a really nice wine shop as well. Both guys spoke excellent English.

Highly recommended!! Good selection of wines, kind staff, very informative & great atmosphere. We had a great experience

We enjoyed this activity so much. The brothers were very knowledgeable about wine and made wine tasting very accessible for us as absolute newbies! We learnt so much in the process and enjoyed making and mixing the wine at the end. We were also lucky enough to have ours as a private session which added to the experience! Would definitely recommend!

We had a fabulous experience with the brothers in their new tasting room. The wine tasting was informative, relaxed and fun, and making our own wine was an awesome, unique experience. We left feeling much more knowledge about wines of the region, as well as about our own personal preferences for drinking red wines. Plus, we have our own unique blends to take away and enjoy in the future. We cannot recommend this experience highly enough!

This was such a fun experience! The brothers are very educated and presented the tasting in an easy to understand, fun to learn way. Including soil samples was an interesting touch as it made it easier to see why some areas of Bordeaux grow different grapes than others. Tasting each wine helped us to determine what we wanted our own blends to be and leaving with our own bottle was icing on the cake. I did this experience with my husband and daugher and we are actually planning a blind tasting to see which of our blends we prefer best. I highly recommend this fun night.

The experience was equal parts educational and entertaining. The brothers are very knowledgeable and passionate about what they do, and their enthusiasm really shows in how they deliver this experience. We start with the history of wine in Bordeaux, then move on to types of wine and experiencing wine tasting before creating your own blends. Be warned though, that if you prefer only white wine, you may be disappointed - this is a red wine experience!

My husband and I visited Bordeaux and booked this wine tasting plus creating your own Bordeaux wine. What a fantastic experience. The wine shop is so lovely, the brothers who own it and run the session are so friendly and knowledgeable. They made the wine tasting fun and enjoyable. My husband also really enjoyed the meat and cheese they provided with the tasting. We then got a chance to bottle our own Bordeaux, what a unique experience. We get back home a couple days before our anniversary and plan to open up the bottles we created at this wine tasting. We highly highly recommend this if you are in Bordeaux, it was one of our highlights of the trip!

Very informative, valuable experience and a great pleasure! The facilitator very entertaining and knowledgeable. The environment encourages participation. The cheese, meat and bread were the best part of the evening without taking away from the highlight which was the selection of wines we were tasting! And well about my own blend...I will come back to let you guys how it went after my Bordeaux Wine Opening party!😂😂😂
