Cousin & Compagnie

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.

Sustainable commitments

L'équipe de Cousin & Compagnie nous illustre l'engagement éco-responsable de l'entreprise: "Cousin & Compagnie, fondée en 1993, est une des premières caves de Bordeaux à avoir introduit des vins issus de la biodynamie et de vinifications naturelles dès le début des années 2000.Notre gamme est spécialisée à 95% dans les vins biologiques, biodynamiques et naturels. Nous accordons beaucoup d’importance aux pratiques à la vigne et au chai de tous les vignerons avec qui nous travaillons, pour la majorité engagée dans des démarches de respect de l’environnement, des Hommes et du Terroir. Toutes nos livraisons sont effectuées en triporteur, le plastique est banni au maximum, nous recherchons des solutions moins consommatrices d’énergie pour nos matières sèches et équipement électrique. Enfin, il y a 2 ans nous avons stoppé toutes nos importations par cargo et privilégions donc les vins Européens."

Cousin & Compagnie est également labellisé Éco-Défis édition 2022. La marque valorise les entreprises qui mettent en place des actions concrètes en faveur de l’environnement autour de 7 thématiques : déchets, emballages, énergie, transport, eau, produits et sociétal-durable.

The tasting was in a calm, comfortable atmosphere with a nice view of vineyards
Nino Zirakashvili 06/23/2026
I liked the range of the wines we tasted, we got full information about the wines from our guide and we had opportunity to discuss and share our opinions with each other quietly, there was no rush. The booking process was quite simple and comfortable also, the price was also acceptable. I would absolutely recommend this offer to my friends :)

Excellent value for money

Easy to purchase at the tourist office though it would be handy if it could be sent to overseas visitors who purchase in advance. It is essential for visitors to Bordeaux as you have advance payment to all the major attractions at a very significant saving.

Just so good
Elizabeth Simms 06/23/2026
The tour was great. Ludmilla was a great guide. And there was only one other person so it was essentially a private tour. She is so knowledgeable and the wineries were quite different but both really good. I highly recommend this company and this tour.

Riverboats are Always Relaxing
Jeff R 06/22/2026
We enjoyed a nice ride along the river. The views were pretty good--though most of the more interesting buildings are in the city center. But getting out on the river to see the city and learn a few things about the lift bridge, the history of trade in Bordeaux, and a few other bits along the way was certainly a worthwhile experience.

Do it for the View. Stay for the Museum!
Jeff R 06/22/2026
The Porte Cailhua experience was lovely. The view is incredible and multiple floors of interactive exhibits, artifacts, stories, etc. definitely made Porte Cailhau a worthwhile experience. I have always wanted to go up into one of the gates in Bordeaux. And this experience certainly did not disappoint!

Value for money, park and ride confusing
George Hale 06/22/2026
We really enjoyed cite de vin and the boat tour along the river with our 3 year old and 5 month old. The tram system was really easy to use and a great way to get about. Only thing we found was the park and ride was confusing. First one we went to we ended up just paying because it didn’t work. The second one we tried was closed but we found free on street parking anyway. You need the pass for parking but have to collect it from the tourist office in town.
