What is the way to do wine-tasting in Bordeaux?


Travel Info
We will be spending 3 days in Bordeaux at the beginning of July and would like to do some wine-tasting. Ideally we don't want to rent a car (none of us can drive a stick and the automatics are way too expensive) - are there easy to reach vineyards/chateaux that we can visit? Also, I know there are a number of famous ones like Chateau Mouton Rothschild - are those open to public? Advice/recommendations are much appreciated!

Travel Tips
There's a website talking about doing travelling in Bordeaux region, but it seems to be not cheap. (180 鈧?the car with driver for one half-day, 320 鈧?for the whole day).
