Guidekin's take

An hour on foot through the old wine merchant streets of Chartrons and along the river with an in house sommelier, then four Bordeaux wines paired with a cheese platter.

Grape varieties and the trade's history are the thread; the route is wheelchair accessible and walking time counts toward the length. 4.87 from 219 reviews at €65 per person.

In our comparison: #13 of 16 in Food Tours, by rating weighted by review volume (see the comparison).
