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.

Overall 5 star value 4 stars. Fun factor 5 stars
Easy to find office during our stay in Bordeaux. Friendly staff to greet us. Sam was an excellent guide and we really enjoyed his company. He had great information to share. The lunch was wonderful. Seeing the village of St Emilion was a good introduction before heading that way for a couple of days. We joined a couple from Australia on this offer and she required gluten free bread. Considering they committed to the offer that same morning at 7:00, I was impressed that the lunch offerings could accommodate that at such short notice. Impressive!
I didn’t realize that we would be biking on roads. It wasn’t that busy with car traffic and Sam made me feel safe. Thanks!
Great choices of wineries. The tour guide information was interesting and the wine sampling sessions were fun. Knowledgeable staff!
Yes would highly recommend this offer and I have shared shared company website with a friend who is coming to Bordeaux in a year or so.

St Emilion Bike Tour
This is the most fabulous way to learn more about wine, see the beautiful vineyards and taste the incredible wines. The electric bikes were brilliant but it was our amazing guide Vicky who pulled it all together, so knowledgeable and such fun; thank you. The best day out

An afternoon in Margaux
Overall, I enjoyed the tour to the Margaux. Vinka, our guide was outstanding - knowledgeable, could convey this information in an engaging manner. She was kind and attentive. The Chateau Siran was the highlight. The staff member at Chateau Haut-Breton Larigaudiere was lovely BUT was not good at describing the wines or bringing them to life for the participants in the tour. This was a let down ending to the tour and not a good advertisement for the tour company that brought us to the region. I would recommend but with caveats. I suggest that a different winery be chosen for the second visit.
