Organising a wine team building<\/strong> experience near Bordeaux raises a simple question: which package should you choose? Group size, time available and the desired level of participation point to very different experiences. This guide compares the formats offered by La Maison Cardinale in Saint-\u00c9milion, to help HR teams, office managers and event agencies choose the experience best suited to their group.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Three criteria for choosing your experience<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Before comparing the different formats, three criteria shape the choice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Group size<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

La Maison Cardinale\u2019s seminar packages welcome 6 to 20 people<\/strong>, a format designed for project teams, management committees and small groups.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Time available<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Three durations structure the offer: the half-day (9:00 a.m.\u20132:30 p.m.)<\/strong>, the full day (approximately 9:00 a.m.\u20134:00 p.m.)<\/strong> and the standalone visit (1 to 2 hours)<\/strong>, with no work session. The choice depends on the team\u2019s actual availability and the place the team building activity occupies within the programme \u2014 whether it is a standalone moment or an extension of a seminar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Desired level of participation<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Some experiences remain guided and contemplative, such as a guided cellar tour. Others involve the group more actively: a visit to the underground monuments of Saint-\u00c9milion, or a masterclass where each participant tastes and compares four wines while listening to music. The level of involvement expected from the team is a criterion in its own right.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Comparing La Maison Cardinale\u2019s team building formats<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The three packages below combine a work session in the private spaces of La Maison Cardinale, at Ch\u00e2teau Fleur Cardinale, Saint-\u00c9milion Grand Cru Class\u00e9, with a wine experience in the estate\u2019s cellar. They differ in their duration, price and the type of experience offered in the afternoon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Half-Day Performance<\/a>: express team building<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

From \u20ac48 excl. VAT per person \u00b7 6 to 20 people \u00b7 9:00 a.m.\u20132:30 p.m.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Half-Day Performance combines a morning of work with a private cellar tour, ending with a guided tasting, followed by a cocktail lunch. It is the shortest format: it only involves the teams for half a day, without taking up an entire day in their schedule.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ideal for:<\/strong> quarterly meeting, project launch, workshop, short team-building session.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Heritage Day<\/a>: team building and cultural discovery<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

From \u20ac88 excl. VAT per person \u00b7 6 to 20 people \u00b7 full day<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Heritage Day extends the morning of work and cellar tour with a private visit to the underground monuments of Saint-\u00c9milion, accompanied by an expert guide. Saint-\u00c9milion, its vineyard and its landscape are listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site: this package allows the team to discover a confidential part of the town, outside the usual setting of a seminar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ideal for:<\/strong> team-building day, annual seminar, extended management meeting, launch day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Signature Day<\/a>: the immersive wine and rock experience<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

From \u20ac133 excl. VAT per person \u00b7 6 to 20 people \u00b7 full day<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Signature Day is the premium package. After the morning of work, the cellar tour and the cocktail lunch, the team experiences the La M\u00e9lodique masterclass: two hours of guided tasting of four vintages of Ch\u00e2teau Fleur Cardinale, paced by the active listening of four rock songs. This experience, awarded a Best of Wine Tourism Gold 2026 in the Discovery and Innovation category, exists nowhere else.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ideal for:<\/strong> executive committee, management team, small group or professional event that you want to make memorable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The prices shown are indicative starting prices: a personalised quote is prepared according to the size of the group and any additional services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A smaller group or a standalone activity?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

For a team that is not looking for an integrated work session, or for a smaller group, the visits at La Maison Cardinale<\/a> offer an alternative without the seminar component. Several experiences are suited to a team-building moment in a small group:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
