Founded in 1993, Cousin & Compagnie is one of the oldest independent wine cellars in Bordeaux and a pioneer in the introduction and commercialization of biodynamic and natural wines since the mid-2000s.
Firmly convinced that the preservation of our natural heritage also depends on vineyard and winery practices, at Cousin & Compagnie, 90% of our selection consists of organic, biodynamic, or natural wines from family estates or independent winemakers.
Visiting our Bordeaux cellar means discovering rare gems from all over France and abroad, whether they are Grand Crus or “friend wines.” A true cabinet of curiosities, Cousin & Compagnie can satisfy both novices and connoisseurs, as well as those seeking unique finds.

Really good experience!
This was a really good experience. We went on the first train of the day at 10.15am. Our train had spare places so we had plenty of room. Our driver was very pleasant and helpful. We liked that the commentary matched exactly where we were on the tour and there was plenty of interesting information which was helpful when we then did a walking tour of the key sights on our own. Would definitely recommend for interest and value.

Delightful!
This tour made it very easy to see two family wineries. It was personal and fun. Our tour guide was great and knew his stuff. I especially appreciated the delicious cheeses, toasts and spread that he brought to accompany one of our tastings. Highly recommend.

Great time!
Remi was our tour guide and he was awesome!
We loved visiting the two chateaus, enjoyed the lunch, and loved wrapping up with some final tastings at the boutique wine shop.
We walked in knowing basically nothing about wine and left feeling relatively educated on it. Plus, we enjoyed some great wine!

Great overview of Medoc wines
Pauline provided helpful overviews of the wine and regional history and she was a lovely person to share the day with. The wine estates were beautiful and it was informative to compare the different styles as we moved further north. The food pairings are matched perfectly and really elevated the experience.

Saint Emilion Wine 1/2 day wine tour
The meeting location was just a pick up point, waited for the guide to show up. Then had to walk to where the van was parked. The guide was very knowledgeable concerning the chateau's, the region, and the wines. The van was air-conditioned which kept us cool during the heat wave. The rows and rows of vines was incredible to see. The hosts at the chateau's were great and informative. The wine tastings were amazing. The little town of Saint Emilion was beautiful and historical. The caverns for the wine storage were very intriguing. Would highly recommend the tour or even a day tour.
