An interesting traditional contrast to the very modern Cite du Vin. My wife was mesmerized by the film on barrel making and we both enjoyed the included wine tasting.

Too focussed on flashy videos that in some cases didn’t really match the wine tasting. Seemed to try to be entertaining rather than substantive

The museum is located in a very nice neighborhood of Bordeaux. We visited it with the audio guide and it was interesting. Very nice was the tasting guided with professionalism and kindness by Mathilde. Long live!
