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.

Very easy to and convenient card
Works on a lot of the major attractions in Bordeaux and did not encounter any difficulties or surprises with the card. Would recommend to everyone.

Wow, wow, wow!
Chloe was friendly, exceptionally knowledgeable and agile. We had to reorganise due to the fires, which was completely understandable. The group barely noticed as she did this. Great wine, lovely food, fantastic tour.

An interesting chateau visit
We visited 10+ chateaus in the region, this was the last one. I would have wished for more professional guidance with better English skills, more focus on winemaking and less focus on the museum of the family. Also, this was the only chateau where we were not allowed to take a picture of the chateau itself as that area was confined to the family. Leaving out the second wine from a tasting lineup isn’t a wise decision commercially as it has the best QPR in the offering.

Wasn’t what we expected
We booked the tuk tuk experience. Was a very quick trip round the surrounding area, which was nice. Once underground the driver crashed the tuk tuk twice.. which ended in us doing a walking tour with another group. We were the only English and got a little forgotten along the way. Ended with the tasting which was cramped and rushed, as another group were already in the room tasting. Lovely place and friendly staff, but just not the experience we expected

City pass. Must have to experience Bordeaux
Convenient to buy. Provides access to several key attractions and discounts on the others. Must do- cite du vin, river cruise, bassiles de lumaires ( they have different shows in forenoon and afternoon, so check and go for the one u'd like better). Museum de Bordeaux if u have kids under 12.
Helpful staff at the tourism office too- appreciate the support and promptness

Fantastic
Wonderful experience. I would highly recommend to anyone who is looking to explore the vineyards of Saint emillion and the surrounding areas. Fantastic for novices (like myself), and those who are more experienced (e.g one of the members of our group)
