A two-hour, self-guided walk steeped in the history of Bordeaux wine following a brand-new illustrated map – that’s what is waiting for anyone who’s fascinated about wine in the wine capital of the world.

The circuit linking Les Chartrons to La Cité du Vin via the Monument aux Girondins has 24 points of interest, taking visitors on a journey that examines the ties that bind Bordeaux to the fermented juice that has won the city international acclaim.

 

Combining fun, history and epicureanism in equal measure, this delightful excursion continues with four short audio clips recounting the experiences of the men and women who have made wine their livelihood from the 19th century to the present day.

 

To round off this unique experience, nothing beats a wine tasting in one of the many establishments listed along the route.
