Are you looking for a class to help understand the compexities of Bordeaux wines and French wines in general? You found it! During two hours, your wine guide will teach you how to taste wines, compare French wines and blend your own wine!  
 
10.30 am: Meet in the centre of Bordeaux at the A la Francaise’s Apartment (3 rue d'enghien 33000 Bordeaux).
 
Your wine lesson will start with a welcome glass of white wine. You will learn how to taste wine properly and never feel intimidated in a French restaurant again!
 
Next up is a tour through France's wines. You'll taste 4 wines from the 4 main wine regions of France and, discover the diversity of French wines and the notions of "terroir" and "appellation". 
 
Then, its time to take a wine blending workshop. Bordeaux wines are blends made from various types of grapes (Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot…). You will get to taste grape varieties individually and then, according to your own preferences, create your very own cuvée! You'll be a wine specialist thanks to our expert wine educator.
 
No Bordeaux wine tasting is complete without a pairing of French delicacies. You'll enjoy a typical french aperitif to pair with your wine tasting (includes fresh bread, sausage, cheese, dark chocolate…) and discover your wine tasting profile guided by your wine educator.

12.30 pm: End of the wine tasting class in Bordeaux
