The Intrepid travellers went on a bus tour from the city of Bordeaux to the sauterne wine growing area visiting the family owned and operated sauterne Chateau Gravas. It was sweet and superb and the grapes are all handpicked to ensure the correct stage of Noble Rot or Botrytis is present. The countryside was beautiful and full of vines and chateau and villages. The second winery was owned and operated by a school of engineers and was absolutely state of the art wine production for red and white wine. We spent the evening with more mojitos including a “pink” one and a truly delicious steak in a happening place in the city.











Sauternes and steaks…
