OLALA BORDEAUX - Wine tours & tastings

If you're visiting Bordeaux, chances are you'll want to drink some wine. Known as the world's winemaking center, the region has 57 appellations (known as AOCs) and more than 6,000 vineyards, producing mostly red wines made from merlot and cabernet sauvignon grapes, though the region also produces white wines. This can make choosing a spot for wine tasting a bit tricky, but luckily, the Bordeaux Tourism & Conventions website makes the process easier. It’s no secret that the Bordeaux wine region is the epicenter for all things wine-related in France and, arguably, Europe. With that in mind, going on a wine tasting is among the top things to do in Bordeaux, and there are plenty of ways to indulge both in and outside the city. If you’re eager to dive right in, visiting Bar à Vin is a must.
