5.00My friend and I enjoyed a wonderful afternoon visiting two wine caves and tasting wines, with our guide Rom! Rom is French but he lived for many years in Napa and New York, so he is perfectly bilingual. He’s also a sommelier, so he gives an expert opinion that is rare on a wine tour. He’s very knowledgeable and personable. We enjoyed the local cheeses and charcuterie at the second wine cave visit. The van is very comfortable and easy to find in front of the Office of Tourism in Tours. I’d highly recommend this tour!
Fabulous tour, highly recommend
