Stop atCafé Lavinal
Opened in 2006, in the center of the village of Bages, Café Lavinal takes its name from Berthe Lavinal, the grandmother of Jean-Michel Cazes. A nod to his childhood holidays spent in his parents' little country café near Villeneuve-sur-Lot. Adjoining Château Lynch-Bages, Café Lavinal is a privileged place where winegrowers and local customers like to meet to share generous cuisine in the heart of the Grands Crus Classés terroir of Pauillac. Warm and friendly, the restaurant offers traditional and tasty market cuisine, made with regional products. In the summer, its sunny terrace is appreciated for its view and its location. The name of the restaurant is given as an example. The restaurant may vary depending on availability.

Stop atChateau Lafon-Rochet
The nugget of Saint-Estèphe The golden yellow color of Château Lafon-Rochet can be surprising when you venture onto Departmental 2 which winds through the largest Médoc vineyards. It is a color that is both bold and warm, like all those who participate in the production of its wines and who live to the rhythm of the vineyard with commitment and passion. At Lafon-Rochet, every intention, every gesture counts to preserve what is most precious: a complex and unique terroir on which the vines grow.

Great Tour Company and hospitality
PBV869902, Dec 2024
Catherine is a very knowledgeable host and we had the pleasure of visiting 8 wineries over 2 days. She worked with us for a bespoke tour that was perfectly executed. We had a very good time everywhere we went. We enjoyed the Left Bank, Right Bank, a UNESCO World Heritage tour & all with splendid meals. She has many contacts in the area and we had an absolutely lovely visit everywhere we went. We were treated to such wonderful hospitality. We will be booking Catherine again! Merci

Wine tasting
Janet_K, Dec 2024
Catherine was a delight! She was extremely knowledgeable about the area. We really wanted to learn about the wine in this region. We were able to taste a nice variety, and learned quite a bit. It was incredibly hot)around 40c/100 F), so we were grateful for the comfort of her vehicle!
Fab visits to Chateaux in the Medoc.
Jacqui_M, Dec 2024
Our first visit was to Chateau du Tertre. We had a tour of the outside and then inside the Chateau. Then a tour of the cellars. They were preparing for the harvest. At the end of the visit we tasted several different wines. It was an exceptional visit.
For lunch we stopped at Chateau Leoville Poyferre. We had lunch on the terrace which was platters of charcuterie and fromages and dips. Delicious. We were able to purchase wine by the glass or bottle which was exceptional.
Our last visit and tasting was to Chateau Micalet, a small artisan wine. Delicious wine and interesting visit.
Our guide Catherine was very helpful, knowledgeable and informative .

Thank you Jacqui! We spent a nice day all together and the lunch at Léoville Poyferré was very good. I am sure that you maybe have beautiful bottles at home as you are a wine expert! I will text you if I come in England to see you and your friendly girl friend. XXX Catherine
Very Pleasant Day in the Medoc
bearbb5, Dec 2024
The tour of the Medoc (30 August 2024) was our second day of touring the wine country in Bordeaux. Catherine did a very good job with the tour, and my wife and I really enjoyed the experience. Thank you to Catherine and Hugo (we did tour of Saint-Emilion the previous day with Hugo) from Bacchus for helping us have a really great experience, during our first trip to Bordeaux! We would definitely use them again, on a future trip to the region. Thanks again.
