We Love Learning About Wine.

5.00Justine was exceptional. Her knowledge of wine and history made the experience perfect. The wineries visited were representative of each region. Our group was very diverse and that made the experience very interesting. Transportation was clean and comfortable. Lunch stop was good example of typical French cuisine and not expensive. I would highly recommend.
From casual to hardcore wine fan. This tour is a perfect match.

5.00Justine takes this tour to a whole other level by engaging with the group in a very friendly and inviting way. You will learn about wine as well. Justine has a very strong education on that topic and is incredibly knowledgeable on all aspects of wine making and beyond. The scenic views, friendly staff, and good wine make this booking a no brainer.
Excellent experience!

5.00A great experience! My husband and I lived the experience as part of our honeymoon. From the beginning to the end of the tour, the attention was spectacular; seeing the terraces of the vineyards was beautiful. At all times, the explanation was very thorough, and they answered all our questions; our guide was super kind and attentive, with extensive knowledge of the world of wine and in general of the area we visited. The tastings at each vineyard were very well detailed and explained; each producer was thorough with their products, all very kind. The wines are a delight, and when they explain in detail the philosophy behind everything from planting, processes, care, and the quality of production, you really understand the valley better. On the way, the views of the Rhône River are formidable, beautiful places to visit. The restaurant where we were taken for lunch was a delicious culinary experience, with good products, very good flavors, and the service was super friendly. The view of the river from the restaurant was beautiful, and the price was totally worth the quality of the food and wines. The transportation was very comfortable. Without a doubt, it was a highly recommendable experience that we would gladly repeat.
Great way to experience French wines and traditions.

5.00It has been a very enjoyable and informative tour. We visited three very beautiful yet different wineries and tasted multiple red and white wines. Justine is very knowledgeable, professional and friendly. We learned great things about wine production, local history and France in general. We also met local wine producers who were happy to share their passion for wines and local traditions. Justine brought us for a lunch to a place well known by the people who live in the area but not often frequented by the tourists. This was very enjoyable too. My wife and I would highly recommend Justine and would join her future tours again with great pleasure.

5.00Justine did an amazing job shepherding us through 3 different wineries, each of a different scale allowing us to compare and contrast between them. There were plenty of wines to taste and Justine’s attention to detail was excellent. The lunch stop was a hidden gem.

A deep dive into northern Rhone wines

5.00Justine is an excellent wine tour guide! She is knowledgeable, warm and has planned a day where you can really experience and understand the wine growing region of the Côte-Rôtie in the northern Rhone Valley. Detailed without being pedantic, I learned so much from this day, even after a lifetime of drinking wine. Lunch at an outwardly non- descript, beautiful inside, restaurant was a great place for our break. Can't recommend highly enough
