Printemps des vins de Blaye : another opportunity while visiting Bordeaux (this time in April) to take part into great wine tastings. Blaye is a little town of about 5000 inhabitants, located in the North-West of Bordeaux, so quite easy to reach by car (or by local bus, there is no train station unfortunately). Its Citadel is part of the Unesco World-Heritage, the wine-growers will wait for you right there. Wine & history, kill two birds with one stone ! Have a look at the following website & buy your pass from now on for the event (7€, 9€ on spot) http://printemps.vin-blaye.com/
