OUR STORY

Private Food and Wine Tours in Bordeaux

1938

My grandparents moved from Switzerland and bought a winery in Dordogne, Chateau Monestier La Tour – the beginning of our family's love affair with wine…

2001

I moved to NYC, started working in the food and wine business and fell in love with the American culture

2014

Back in Bordeaux, in my hometown, 10 minutes away from the beautiful village of Saint Emilion, I decided to start a business that brings together everything I love in life: people, wine, food and travels … Bordeaux With Elodie is born!

2017

We taste so many delicious wines and know how difficult it can be to choose, so we created one of Bordeaux's first wine clubs, BWE, shipping carefully selected wines to the US and worldwide.

2022

We survived covid, quite the rollercoaster, and we are back in action! So grateful to see our lovely guests travelling to Bordeaux again. Our heart is full!

The Team

Mamacita Koidak efect
Signature Elodie

I was born and bred in the Bordeaux region, just minutes from the magnificent vineyards of Saint Emilion; I am as much a product of the area’s unique terroir as the local wines.

My grandfather spent his entire life in the wine and food business, my brother manages a chateau, and my cousin is a wine merchant. After living in the U.S. and Central America for over a decade and working for gourmet food businesses, like Les Trois Petits Cochons (The Three Little Pigs); I am thrilled to have returned to my roots, and to the beauty and grace of Bordeaux.

Bordeaux with Elodie gives me the opportunity to share my passion for the region with wine and culinary enthusiasts from around the world.

Born and raised in Pessac Leognan, one of the oldest appellations in the Bordeaux region, Laura has been immersed in the world of wine since childhood.

Since 2015, Laura has been Elodie’s right hand. Both at the office and in the vineyards, Laura loves being surrounded by travellers, good wine, and good food!

guide Emilie

Our wonderful Emilie has been a part of the dreamteam since 2017 and absolutely loves her job.

Emilie spent years in Paris, working in the world of luxury, hospitality and tourism – including eight years as a commercial agent for Air France. She left still loving hospitality but not the subject, and her life changed when she decided to reunite with one of her first loves in Bordeaux: red wine!

Emilie will show you the very best of Bordeaux with endless knowledge, love, passion and emotion.

Marina pro

Marina was born around Lyon, the capital of French gastronomy, and grew up surrounded by vineyards.

She knew her future lay in Bordeaux, so she completed a Master’s Degree in wine marketing and interned in a winery in Saint-Emilion: the love story had begun!

After working at several prestigious wineries throughout the Bordeaux appellations – Sauternes, Pomerol, etc., –  she met Elodie, and the rest is history! She is now living the dream, and can’t wait to share it with you, our lovely guests. Cheers!
