Margot was a wonderful guide with a great wealth of knowledge. We were inexperienced with wine and she took her time to explain the areas, the way wine is labeled, and the history of the area. I would highly recommend using her for your next tour! The winery’s themselves were amazing! We were able to complete ample tastings and found how to really enjoy wine! 10/10 stars!!!!!!!!
I cannot recommend Margot or this tour enough. Being a sommelier, she is an expert who shares her vast knowledge generously. Timing was perfect. Highest recommendation.
Margot was AMAZING! She was knowledgeable, personable and fun to spend the day with. The wineries that were chosen showed us the different ways wineries do things and yet produce the same delicious wine! We really enjoyed the tour and would book again if we return to this area. Thank you so much! Dawn and Rich Austin, TX
We had a wonderful time exploring Châteauneuf-du-Pape with our guide, Margot. She was incredibly attentive and has an expert knowledge of the region’s vineyards; we truly enjoyed this shared experience and learned so much. The estates we visited were perfect—a family-run winery and a château—which allowed us to see two different approaches to winemaking. The wines were excellent. This tour will remain one of our fondest memories of our trip to France.
