Did you know ?

In 1787, Thomas Jefferson, future president of the United States, travelled through the vineyards of France. He took very precise notes and stayed in Bordeaux.

He drew up a classification that included four estates: Château Margaux, La Tour de Ségur, Haut Brion and Château Lafite.

These four châteaux are among the first great classified growths of 1855, quite a flair!

   Great wine and culture tour
Took a great tour out the wine country of Bordeaux and learned a lot about the region along the way! Definitely worth the price of admission.

   Ok visit
We went here after the main wine museum. It is much smaller and has a different focus. The best part for me was the wine tasting at the end of our visit. The host was informative and had good knowledge. We used the City Card which made the overall costs good.

   Dusty displays, perfect location, and interesting story.
Seems appropriate for a museum with this great story to be sited in a very dusty and authentic cellar though this is far from good museum practice. Has a great sense of place but the objects on display need some professional attention and display. The museum and interesting talk afterwards were well worth a visit.

   Bordeaux Wine Museum
I booked my 10€ ticket a couple of days in advance after having visited the Cité du Vin. This museum is situated in a charming street with a few typical bars and restaurants. The staff were super friendly in both English and French and answered all my difficult questions. You need about an hour for the tour and half an hour for the wine tasting. A real pilgrimage for wine lovers. Highly recommended !

   A disappointment
The museum is located in the Charton area of Bordeaux with good public transportation by tram. The building was earlier used by wine merchants and the history of the area is actually quite interesting. Admission is EUR 10, holders of the Bordeaux City Pass EUR 5, and included is a tasting of two wines. It is a traditional museum with several historical exhibits and the tour is self guided. Texts are in French, but English texts are available at the desk. We visited around lunch time on a day with few visitors and the staff seemed rather uninspired. After our tour we wanted to do the tasting, but apparently no one were able to perform this, so we decided to leave without it which was a disappointment.

   Good Tour & Wine Tasting Session
Even though this museum is quite small I found the audio guide much better than the one in Le Cite Du Vin. The Wine tasting session was also much better than Le Cite Du Vin as it was explained quite well by the resident expert.Entry is covered by Bordeaux City Pass

   I dont understand the allure.
I dont understand the attraction here. Its two 50 yard wine cellar rooms with a nice audio guide of a bunch of small relics about wine. For me, it was so musty and stale, I was sneezing the entire time. There is a wine tasting associated with it, but I opted out since the person pouring was coughing no stop as I waited. Its definitely not friendly for children.

   An amazing hidden gem! Worth your time, even if you already think you know wine. You'll learn more.
We enjoyed this little museum immensely! Worth the trip. It's a self-guided tour through the cellar with interesting artifacts and information about the history and craftmanship of winemaking in Bordeaux. The staff also gave a very interesting tasting lesson. Highly recommend taking the hour or so to visit this museum.

   Well Worth the Time!
Excellent Historical Review of the Bordeaux Wine Trade. The history information dated back over 500+ years ago. It was a self guided tour with the option of an audio guide with your smart phone or a printed book. You walk through at your own pace and it is easy to go forward or back with the audio version.The museum is located the historical building from the 12th century.Wine tasting was average but very pleasant lady who gave the presentation.Well worth the admission cost.
