About this tour
Venture into Bordeaux's natural wine scene on a 90-minute guided tour near the Dordogne River, 25 minutes from the city centre. You'll taste six or more wines made without industrial intervention—orange, pét-nat, claret, rosé and aged reds—while learning what separates natural producers from organic and conventional operations. The winery doubles as a working farm, so expect to meet the livestock that roams the property. This is about flavour on its own terms, not polished marketing.
Highlights
- Taste 6+ natural wines made without additives or filtration
- Sample orange, pét-nat, claret, rosé and mature reds
- Learn natural versus organic versus conventional winemaking
- Walk the vineyard and winery with a knowledgeable guide
- Meet chickens, ducks and geese on the working farm
- 25 minutes from Bordeaux city by public transport
What to expect
You'll arrive at a small, unfussy property along the Dordogne where the vines and animals coexist. The guide will walk you through the vineyard first, explaining why these winemakers reject sulphites and mechanical intervention. Back at the winery, you'll taste methodically through the range—some wines might taste funkier or cloudier than supermarket bottles, and that's deliberate. Expect frank talk about fermentation, natural yeasts and what happens when you let wine be wine. The 90 minutes moves at a conversational pace; bring an appetite for detail and a willingness to challenge your assumptions about what wine should taste like.
