5.00Yev was a wonderful host and incredibly knowledgeable about wine and spirits (he used to teach in the industry!) Great for beginners but great if you want to learn more about the details.
A wonderful day in the French countryside!

5.00What a wonderful day in the French countryside! St-Emilion is such a cute town. I wish we were given some extra time to walk around, but the full day tour is very busy. We visited 3 wineries and a wine store during the day. Stan was a wonderful guide, and I really enjoyed the fact that there were only 8 of us on this tour,
Wonderful day trip

5.00We had a wonderful time on our Saint Emilion and Medoc tour with Pauline! We got to visit so many vineyards and learn about the wine making process at each Chateau. Pauline provided expertise and answered all our questions about the wine and the history of the region. The lunch provided was delicious and we finished the tour very full of wine! All the samples we had were excellent and we feel much more knowledgeable going back home to the states! We can’t wait to share some of the wine we bought with friends! Thanks for a great day, Pauline!
A superb day out learning about the area and its wines!

5.00An absolutely superb day out exploring the wine regions and countryside. Our guide was very friendly and welcoming and very knowledgable. We saw some beautiful countryside along the way and the stop at the village of St Emillion was a highlight of our entire stay. Note; if you are not steady on your feet then this could be tricky as the streets are steep and cobbled. We did a lovely comparison tasting at a shop and then moved onto a family vineyard for a tour, talk, tasting and lunch including a bottle of wine! Into the left bank and a stop at a large vineyard and a very good talk, tour and tasting. Onto our last stop close by of a smaller family vineyard and a lovely tasting session. A great end to a long and memorable day!
Great Bordeaux wine trip!

5.00This was an amazing experience! Pauline was an excellent guide and was so knowledgable! We got to go to three different chateaus as well as one tasting room. The lunch was delicious from local producers. If you are looking to explore the Bordeaux wine region, we could not recommend a better experience.
