It was an interesting and educational experience. The museum is nicely structured, with a modern and appealing design. The exhibition had interesting facts and captivating displays. The wine tasting could use more varieties from outside of France, considering that French wines can be found in dedicated stores.

We liked the different ways of explaining about wine. Some interactive, others films of regions and methods of production. We didn't feel rushed and were able to get a pass to return after breaking for something to eat. Language no problem, with headsets for many different languages.

A must-do in Bordeaux. I went on the e-scooter. Took me around 8 min to get there. I did the whole tour, stopped at every counter. It took me a good 3 hours but if you are a wine and history enthusiast and eager to learn more about Bordeaux, then you will definitely spend this much time. After the tour, you claim a wine glass at Belvedere rooftop where you have a 360 degrees view of the city.
