Discovery Day
What a wonderful discovery during our wine-tasting day in Saint-Émilion! We particularly enjoyed our first two visits, to Château Champion and Château Tailhas. The staff there were very attentive, passionate, and took the time to share their knowledge of the terroir and their expertise. It was a real pleasure to talk with them. We’ll be back in a heartbeat! On the other hand, we were a bit disappointed by our visit to Château de la Croizille, which seemed more focused on the industrial side of things than on the authenticity of the terroir. We also had the chance to discover the restaurant Lard et Bouchon, a wonderful spot that perfectly rounded out the day with great food and a warm, friendly atmosphere. It was a wonderful discovery that we thoroughly enjoyed, as was the visit to St. Émilion ☺️

A wonderful introduction to wine appreciation
We visited three wineries, each offering a rather different experience, but all of them interesting. We enjoyed Château Champion, a family-run business where we received a warm welcome. The tour was authentic and very friendly. You can really feel their passion for their craft and their desire to share their family’s expertise. A wonderful discovery! We liked Château Tailhas, with its pleasant welcome and interesting tour. We appreciated the family atmosphere and the closeness to the people who bring the estate to life. Finally, Château Croizille offered a different approach, with a distinct estate and way of operating. The tour was interesting. Lunch was a wonderful surprise: the restaurant “LARD ET BOUCHON,” located in the heart of Saint-Émilion, with a lovely, cozy atmosphere—and the food was truly excellent. A delicious, refined meal that perfectly rounded out this wonderful day of exploring the wineries. All in all, three complementary visits that allowed us to discover different facets of the wine world. A wonderful experience that we recommend to wine lovers and those seeking new discoveries. Thank you for this wonderful itinerary.

A day full of discoveries and delicious flavors
We had the pleasure of visiting three wineries, each offering quite different but equally interesting experiences. We particularly enjoyed Château Champion, a family-run business where we received a truly impeccable welcome. The tour was warm, authentic, and very friendly. You can really feel their passion for the craft and their desire to share the family’s expertise. A wonderful discovery! We also really enjoyed Château Tailhas, with its warm welcome and interesting tour. Once again, we appreciated the family atmosphere and the close connection with the people who run the estate. Finally, Château Croizille offered a different approach, with a unique estate and operational style. The tour was interesting, especially for learning about another way of producing and marketing wine, but we personally preferred the charm and authenticity of the two family-run estates. Lunch was also a wonderful surprise: the restaurant “Chai Pascal,” located in the heart of Saint-Émilion, was very pleasant, and we really enjoyed our meal. A delicious meal that perfectly rounded out this wonderful day of exploring the wineries. All in all, these three complementary tours offered a chance to discover different facets of the wine world. A wonderful experience that we highly recommend to wine lovers and those who enjoy exploring new places!

Some truly wonderful and delightful discoveries
Our visits to Château Champion and Château Tailhas were very enjoyable, interesting, and informative. We were warmly welcomed, and the owners and staff, driven by their passion, were very hospitable and eager to help us understand and taste their wines. On the other hand, our visit to Château Croizille was a big disappointment: the welcome was far from warm, the tour was rushed, the tasting was hurried through without any explanations, and our questions seemed to annoy our guide (Killian) and distract him from texting!.... The restaurant where we had lunch, Le Candale, was very good, with a magnificent view surrounded by vineyards.

A great day at the vineyards of St. Émilion
A romantic wine tour we highly recommend—a wonderful gift idea!! We had wonderful encounters at the various wineries with passionate owners eager to share their expertise and stories with us. Lunch with that breathtaking view of the vineyards was magnificent!! The tour of the first two sites in a small group felt more like a family outing!! We tasted some truly excellent wines. We were delighted with our day

Day trip Saint Emilion Pomerol
For our day on 02/05/26, we preferred the first two châteaux, Champion and Tailhas, because we met passionate and fascinating people, in particular one of the Nebout brothers from château Tailhas, with whom we learned the most. As for the third château, we particularly appreciated the typology of the site, with its rugged terrain. For lunch, we enjoyed the meal, but less so the welcome. Otherwise a Vinotrip experience is to be recommended. Sincerely

A VERY SUCCESSFUL DAY (despite a half-hearted final visit)
We had a wonderful day, very well organized overall. The first two châteaux, Château Champion and Château Tailhas, were real favorites: estates on a human scale, with passionate, warm and generous owners. We particularly appreciated the quality of the discussions, their availability and the very clear and enriching explanations. You get a real sense of authenticity and love for the job, which makes the visits truly unique. Lunch was another highlight of the day: an exceptional restaurant, with a delicious and perfectly executed menu of the day. The terrace setting with its magnificent view over the vineyards was simply splendid, a real moment of pleasure and relaxation. By contrast, the last visit in the afternoon was much less convincing. The experience was much more commercial and impersonal: we didn't visit the vineyards, only the cellar, followed by a tasting session, which ended in the boutique. The explanations seemed rather approximate, and the whole thing felt more like "mass tourism" than authentic discovery, in stark contrast to the morning's visits. In spite of this, we'll keep the positive aspects in mind, thanks to the first two estates and the lunch, which contributed greatly to making the day a wonderful experience.

Exceptional day
We had an excellent day, perfectly organized. The visit to the first 2 chateaux was fascinating. Our hosts gave us a warm welcome and we were able to chat with them very pleasantly. Lunch was excellent. The visit to the last château was less exciting (more touristy, very rough explanations), even if it allowed us to discover a more avant-garde estate.

A beautiful day in the vineyards
Vinotrip for lovers under a beautiful sun. Chateau Champion and Chateau Tailhas: passionate owners, we really appreciated the welcome and the discussions. Delicious meal at Lard et Bouchon, stroll around Saint Emilion... we didn't enjoy Chateau Croizille so much... more touristy in the welcome and a visit with approximate information, very nice views of the rolling vineyards though. A lovely day out.

VERY NICE DISCOVERY
Our children gave us the gift of an oenological day, and we met friendly, passionate, professional people who were also available to help us, so we learned a lot.

A day to enjoy without moderation
An extremely rewarding day of discovery. The choice of different areas was very relevant and varied, and we enjoyed the lunch break during which we feasted. This trip was a gift from our daughter, but we're already planning to repeat the experience.

Very nice discovery
A great experience for this day! The event was very well organized, the service providers were top-notch, and the lunchtime restaurant was extra! The only slight downside was the last château, which cut the afternoon short. 1 hour earlier would have been perfect. Thank you for a stay that opened up our taste buds!

A beautiful day
The meeting with the three châteaux was interesting, if a little speedy. The morning time (9:30 am) is probably a little early to open our taste buds, but the experience is to be recommended!

Impeccable programming. We made two visits in the morning, had lunch in a very good restaurant and then made a final visit at the end of the afternoon. Impeccable timing. Everything was a 10-minute drive away. We were sent to some very good addresses! I highly recommend it if you're an amateur.

Nice discovery
The only downside was that the time of the last visit was rather late, cutting into the afternoon. Transportation could be a plus to make the most of the day.

Nice discovery
It was a surprise for my husband's birthday. We enjoyed learning about the history of wine in each estate. The restaurant at lunchtime was very good. We had a wonderful day. Would recommend
