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.

A Super Tasting and Education Experience
We had a wonderful day with Rustic Vines touring both the left and right banks of the Garonne. Of course we chose to do the tour because we enjoiy wine but we were so grateful to have the opportunity to listen to experts whilst also trying a large variety of wines. In total, this tour enabled us to taste 14 wines...that actually takes some doing but we did not feel rushed and, for us, having the opportunity to explore both the St Emilion and Medoc traditions was a big bonus. Ismail our host and driver from Rustic Vines was a superstar...ensuring we kept to time (almost :-) ) sharing his experience and knowledge and participating in our group banter. As well as the ability to taste wines and learn from experts, the joys of these tours is the ability to share thoughts and conversation with like minded people. All in all, this trip was a highlight of our holiday and will provide memories and friendships that will stay with us. Thank you Rustic Vines.

Great value/price
We had an amazing experience with the city pass. It lets you to move freely in the city and visit a lot of museums. It also offer you a free ride on the small train or ferry boat. Great price value!

wonderful wine tour with full of knowledge and lot of fun
the meeting point is very easy to find, you just need to arrive on time or 5 mins in advance
our guideman Gabriel is very kindful and easygoing. he took care of all the details and told us about everything he know about this place and its history.
our 'wine doctor' Aamir is smart and funny, he is an expert on wine definitely but he always be able to find a way to make everything easy to understand, and give us a very special experience of wine tasting. I still remember some fun facts he told about grapes and chateau.
good time is always too short, I hope next time I could spend a whole day exploring this beautiful village with this fantastic team again!

A Day in St Emillion
The wineries were very average with the exception of Chateau Chapelet. Lunch was nice but based on the overall selection of wine perhaps I don't like these wines. Walking around St Emillion was wonderful. Our guide, Anisa was great
