Cose da fare a Bordeaux

Ottima visita, il museo era interattivo con molti tipi di mostre. Il biglietto includeva anche un vino gratuito sulla terrazza panoramica che offriva una bella vista della città.

La nostra guida, Carol, è stata molto gentile e ci ha fornito spiegazioni informative sulle cantine. Abbiamo visitato due cantine, entrambe molto raffinate e con caratteristiche distintive, il che ha reso interessante il confronto.

Our guide's explanation that the Garonne River was never blue, but rather a lovely blonde color instead of brown, was quite amusing. (Translated via app) It was wonderful to see the city of Bordeaux from the river and pass under several bridges as we headed towards the estuary. The wine and canelés were also delicious!

Although I haven't been a wine lover for long, I'd heard a lot about Bordeaux, so I signed up for a winery tour. Despite struggling with the hotter-than-expected weather, I was glad to gain valuable experience and useful knowledge. It was especially worthwhile to taste 3-4 types of wine and see the entire process from vineyard to production. My only regret is that I didn't have enough time to explore Saint-Émilion at a leisurely pace. This seems to be due to the significant travel time, so perhaps next time I'll visit Saint-Émilion separately.
