Amazing experience. Just book it. Margaret Rose was the most educated and patient advisor. The wine tour she presented - coupled with a though explanation of the mechanics behind pairings was perfect. This highlighted the richness of the Lyon region and helped us fall in love with the history and art of wine.

We had an amazing wine tasting experience in Lyon, thanks to Margaret Rose! She was incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about wine, explaining the different regions, grape varieties, and the unique character of each wine we tasted. I learned so much — not just how to taste, but also how to better understand and appreciate wine. Margaret made the whole experience relaxed, engaging, and truly enriching. Highly recommend this tasting experience, especially with someone as skilled and welcoming as Margaret!

Our sommelier, Ghjulia, was phenomenal. We were her first wine tasting group, but you would never have noticed. Ghjulia was well versed in the wines of France, the regions they come from, the history of French wine, and how to tell where a wine originated from. While we all just met each other, she made it feel like we were sharing wine, cheeses, meats, and conversations with friends. I would highly recommend booking a wine tasting with Ghjulia!
