Departure and arrival from a château just a stone's throw from Saint-Émilion
Immerse yourself in the heart of the Bordeaux vineyards with Mob & Wine, an original wine tourism activity combining a ride on a vintage moped, scenic roads, and an encounter with the exceptional terroirs of Saint-Emilion.
The concept
Climb aboard a vintage moped (Motobécane or Peugeot from the 70s-80s) for a 35 km road trip through the villages, vineyards, and châteaux of the Saint-Émilion appellation, with a few forays into the neighbouring appellations of Pomerol and Montagne Saint-Emilion. The route forms a country loop, accessible to all adults (18 years and older), even without previous experience riding a two-wheeler.

• Independent or guided ride (depending on group size).
