This was a fun afternoon visiting two wine makers. I loved all the wines presented! So good! Our guide, Erik, was full of details about the countryside and even gave us a historic overview of Avignon.
A must do for lovers of wine. Gordana has an infectious personality, great knowledge of the region and its history and allows you to sit back and enjoy some amazing wines without the worry of both finding these venues in the tight winding streets of Cháteauneuf De Pape and watching how much you are drinking. A particular highlight was the tasting at Les Caves St Charles. The venue, wines and guidance from Guy will be hard to top!
Everything you need is provided, the guides were very friendly and knowledgeable. Fun throughout. You'll be sure to learn something you didn't know about wine. We visited two wine houses and enjoyed some of the history of the fantastic and famous wine region. I would definitely book again!
Best tour of our six week European road trip! Guide was funny and informative and the wineries we visited were excellent. Learned a lot about southern France wine production.
Eric was exceptional! He provided a wonderful experience, we learned more about the making of wine, the people and history of winemaking in the region. The wineries we visited were outstanding and Eric handled all the shipping details for wine to the U.S. The entire day was one we will never forget. We highly recommend Eric!
Great tour with Eric. Eric was knowledgeable and funny which made the tour even better. Eric took us first to a small, family run winery where we learned about their history, the process, and region. This was followed by a stop in the local vineyards and a stop at a fantastic wine cave in the town of CDP. Overall, it was a really nice mix of wine tastings and learning about and seeing the broader region.
A wonderful & informative tour of the Chateau Neuf de Pape vineyards. Our tour guide was extremely knowledgeable & friendly !
Eric was an amazing tour guide and was very informative!!! The two wineries we went to were great!!!
I do not have enough superlatives to accurately express our small tour. Our guide was knowledgeable but not condescending, the hosts at the wineries were endearing, the wines were fantastic. The tour was informal from the beginning, we were made to feel at ease and genuinely welcome. Our driver went out of his way to accommodate our wishes. He even made a detour so I could visit a shop in the village. Overall, a wonderful afternoon and I wholeheartedly recommend.
A sensational guide combining the knowledge of a vigneron with the wit and charm of a born raconteur. We had a great trip to one of the largest chateaus in Chateau Neuf de Pape and a wonderful cave for tastings. The winemakers were exceptional and the wine delicious. Highly recommend
Thank you for your kind words. It is great to hear that you enjoyed the wine tasting and that you liked our choice of wineries. Hope to see you again!
