Description
Viniv, a French company, is offering guests the unique opportunity to become a Bordeaux winemaker and produce a barrel of Bordeaux, using grapes from some of the region's best appellations.

Adding to the memorable experience, guests stay at the Cazes family-run Relais & Chateaux Cordeillan-Bages hotel, only 10 minutes from the winery and delight in delectable meals from two-star Michelin chef, Jean-Luc Rocha. His indebted understanding of the terroir and incredible ability to match it with the region's wines, make for an unforgettable, delicate and harmonious dining experience.
