Route: Toulouse - Château Brondelle - Bordeaux - Toulouse
Duration: 10 h
The first stop of our tour will be at Château Brondelle which is located at the south of the Graves area, the vineyard is Situated on an exceptional gravelly hilltop. 45ha are shared entre les appellations Graves Saternes, Bordeaux and Bordeaux Supérieur. The different wines are grown in vats and barrels. There you will tast the local wines before our visit to Bordeaux. The city Bordeaux is the capital of the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region with its famous vineyards, the also has a prestigious architectural heritage. A remarkable urban and architectural ensemble to enjoy on a sightseeing walk along the quays of the Garonne, its elegant streets and imposing town squares. Must-see places include the lively Place de la Comédie with its neoclassical Grand Theatre adorned with majestic Corinthian columns, Place de la Bourse with its fountain of the Three Graces, and the Allées de Tourny. Strolling through the historic centre is also a great way to discover medieval Bordeaux: Saint-André Cathedral with its carved portals, Gothic choir and Renaissance organ loft, the imposing Cailhau door dedicated to Charles VIII, the Holy Cross (Sainte-Croix) Church with a façade carved in the Saintonge Romanesque style, and the door of the Great Bell (Grosse Cloche), the belfry of the old City Hall, are all reminders of this time. A bell tower separated from St Andrew's Cathedral, the 15th-century Pey Berland tower, offers breathtaking views of the roofs and spires of the city. Although this view must be earned by climbing the 231 steps of the narrow spiral staircase! Not far from this Gothic gem lies the famous pedestrian street of Rue Sainte-Catherine, a long commercial street popular with shoppers, which connects Place de la Victoire to Place de la Comédie. Finally, food-lovers won't want to leave Bordeaux without trying the famous canelés, delicious little cakes flavoured with rum and vanilla, best enjoyed with a cup of tea or coffe, and also many kinds of local wine. After we will return to Toulouse.
