Ten tastings across two chateaux and a wine merchant, all on electric bike through the countryside.

This e-bike wine tour in Saint-Émilion runs 7 to 8 hours from a 10:30am start, cycling through vineyards and villages with a professional English-speaking guide who shares local history and winemaking knowledge. You visit two chateaux—one family-run, one organic and over 400 years old—taste a minimum of 10 wines, eat French lunch in the château gardens with wine included, and finish at a wine merchant in the village for three more tastings. E-bikes make the hills manageable for all fitness levels, and the guide can recommend rare and aged vintages you can purchase and ship home.

The Experience

The day starts at 10:30am at the e-bike center with a briefing and a chance to get comfortable on the bike before you roll out into the rolling hills. The electric assist means the climbs through the vineyards don't wear you down—the point is the vines, the stories, and the wine, not the effort. By 11:30am you're at the first chateau, a family property that changes depending on the day you book, where you'll taste their Grand Cru and learn how they make it.

Lunch arrives at 12:30pm in the château gardens: proper French cuisine with wine already poured, a break built into the rhythm of the day so you're not rushing between stops. After you eat, you cycle again into the countryside to learn about the blue clay that gives Saint-Émilion its character, then arrive at the second vineyard—an organic operation that's been in the same family for over 400 years. The guide walks you through their philosophy and their approach to biodiversity, then you taste their wines. By 4pm you're cycling back to the bike shop, and at 5pm you're at a well-known wine merchant in the village itself for a third tasting of minimum three to five classified wines. This is where you can hunt for rare and old vintages if something catches you; the merchant can ship them anywhere in the world.

The tour wraps between 5 and 5:30pm. Depending on the day, there's a final glass on the house and a chance to ask your guide for recommendations before you leave. The whole day—the cycling, the two chateaux visits, the lunch, the three tastings, the merchant stop—is included. You bring a helmet; the bikes and the guide's knowledge are already there.
