Bordeaux Wine and Trade Museum Admission Ticket with Wine Tasting

LolaDeVys, Aug 2024

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.

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 !

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 information, and loved being in the "cave"...we enjoyed the wine tasting and the history in the little museum.

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
