What people are saying about Bordeaux

This was a absolutely wonderful experience! Both wines and cheeses were incredible! We had three glasses of wine and three different cheese boards for each wine with 5 samples on each!! Well worth the money! I would recommend this class to everyone. The restraint this class is held in is so beautiful and even has a cheese cellar you can go look at underneath!

Wonderful experience! Visiting 3 chateaus was amazing and with a trip to the Saint Emilion town it was definitely worth the price. Would highly recommend!

Julie did a phenomenal job for my family on our tour, working with a diverse group of people with varying levels of knowledge and wine expertise.

Informative, great wines, nice choice of chateaux. Knowledgeable tour of Saint-Emillion too. Really enjoyed it, thanks René!
