Join Red for a very special insider’s tour of the Bordeaux region, where two exceptional partners—Château Troplong Mondot and The Bordeaux Concierge—combine to offer an unforgettable journey into the heart of French wine culture.

Access to Bordeaux’s famed châteaux is frequently limited and sometimes impossible to come by. When you travel with Red, however, you’ll enjoy privileged access to the region’s most exclusive properties, including sole use of Château Troplong Mondot, one of Saint-Émilion’s prestigious Grand Cru estates, and a bespoke itinerary curated by Bordeaux’s most connected insiders, The Bordeaux Concierge.

The winning bidders’ party of five couples will spend five glorious nights at Château Troplong Mondot, a Premier Grand Cru Classé estate nestled on Bordeaux’s Right Bank. With roots dating back to 1700 and vineyards first planted in 1745, Château Troplong Mondot is known for its unparalleled hilltop views over the village of Saint-Émilion and its elegant, aromatic wines crafted from Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc.

During your stay at Troplong Mondot, your group will enjoy five beautifully appointed ensuite bedrooms, elegant living spaces, a sun-drenched terrace and a private swimming pool. You’ll experience a private, in-depth tour of the estate, followed by a tasting of some of their best vintages. One evening your party will dine at Les Belles Perdrix, the onsite Michelin-starred restaurant, and another evening the restaurant team will curate an alfresco champêtre-style dinner, hosted by one of the estate directors in the château’s orchard overlooking the village of Saint-Émilion, and accompanied by a Five Liter bottle of the legendary 2005 vintage.

Thanks to the experts at The Bordeaux Concierge, you’ll also enjoy experiences at some of the region’s other top châteaux. With years of experience and deep relationships with winemakers and estate owners, Martin Hurst and Timothy Olson specialize in crafting tailor-made wine experiences that go far beyond standard tours. After a personal consultation to understand your preferences, they will design a three-day bespoke itinerary featuring private visits to six classified estates, including intimate lunches at three estates hosted by a senior member of the estate team. Their insider access ensures that you’ll experience Bordeaux in a way few ever do—immersed in its culture, history and hospitality.

As a memento of your time in Bordeaux, each couple will receive a Magnum of 2019 Troplong Mondot. The wine earned rave reviews from critics, including a perfect 100-point rating from Wine Enthusiast magazine, which praised its intensity, acidity and generously ripe fruit, as well as its velvet touch and power.

Red urges you to seize this opportunity and make your wine travel dreams a reality, while also helping the next generation of children achieve their dreams.
