Nice wine trip in the Médoc - We were picked up on time by Emmanuel with a 7-seater. In a small group of four people we visited two interesting chateaux where we were shown around by people from the chateaux themselves. Along the way we were talked about Bordeaux wines. Since the group spoke the best English, Emmanuel did everything in that language. All in all a fun and well organized trip.
