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.

Be prepared to read the tour if you speak English
Julia Higgs 05/22/2026
The location of the tour was convenient and the price is decent. However, our tour operator treated as an inconvenience. The tour was in French, even though we were led to believe it would have English translations. Instead you are asked to read about the locations, but the cave portion was not on the printed sheet. Reading the tour means you can't enjoy the view. We were told to be quiet when we asked questions as she emphasized the time table she had to keep.

The ONLY way to see Bordeaux Wine Country
Andrew Gyure 05/22/2026
From our first contact, Alexandre impressed me with his enthusiasm, prompt replies to questions, and flexibility in tailoring a sidecar tour to meet my dreams. He assembled the most delicious picnic lunch and picked just the right spot to enjoy it with a view of the vineyards. The chateaux and tastings he chose were top-notch. A sidecar is the perfect way to see wine country, experiencing the wind in your hair and thrill of the open road. Sure beats being crowded into a van with 10 other tourists. I cannot recommend Retro Tour more highly!

We were very impressed by the tour. The guide was good and had interesting facts that she shared with us. The group we were in, was very inquisitive and asked many questions which made the experience even more interesting.
