Bordeaux Gourmet Experience : proeverij van Franse kazen & wijnen
Beschrijving
Geniet van een unieke kaas- en wijnproeverij tijdens uw verblijf in Bordeaux, gevestigd in een van de oudste en meest authentieke kaaskelders van de stad. Verborgen onder het restaurant verwelkomt de beroemde “Grot van 100 Kazen” u in een 18e-eeuwse gewelfde ondergrondse kelder waar het Franse culinaire erfgoed tot leven komt. Deze familie gerunde instelling, opgericht in 1987, biedt een vrolijke en gezellige Tour de France of Cheeses, begeleid door gepassioneerde gastheren die anekdotes, verhalen en leuke weetjes delen tijdens de proeverij. Aan een grote gemeenschappelijke tafel proef je 9 AOP/AOC Franse kazen uit verschillende regio’s, gecombineerd met 3 Bordeauxwijnen, droog wit, rood en Sauternes, en vergezeld van traditioneel zuurdesembrood van een lokale bakkerij. Deze ontspannen en interactieve ervaring viert het delen, eenvoud, lachen en het plezier van lekker eten samen, in echte Franse art de vivre.

The guy gave information about the platter of 9 cheeses along with 3 glasses of wine, one red, one white and one sweet. Would have liked a written sheet on the wine and cheeses that we got. Also, the wine was in short supply in relation to the cheeses. Felt we could have had another glass each. Not good value for money.
Bonjour Gill_W Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We would have preferred if it had better met your expectations. We offer one glass of wine for three cheeses, three times, which amounts to a substantial volume of wine for 1.5 hours. We will certainly pass on your suggestion for a write-up to our partner; however, please note that this is not a masterclass but rather more of an exchange with the host. We sincerely hope to regain your confidence during a next experience with us. Best regards Carole from Ophorus team
I had a wonderful afternoon visiting the wine groves of St Émilion with Ophorus tours. Our guide Alice was extremely attentive and informative. Our van we travelled in was both clean & modern. It was a small intimate group which I personally loved. I do not drink so I was hesitant of doing the trip but I really enjoyed it as I learnt about how the winery works and how people live in this beautiful region of France. It was an absolutely fabulous day (weather wise) and after the tour of the wine works and house we were brought to the local medieval village of saint-Émilion itself and that was just magical. It really was a trip that I will not forget! Thank you Alice!!
Absolutely recommend doing this wine & cheese experience. The host is knowledgeable and spoke English well, and was very able to convey knowledge of the Bordeaux wine making as well as their cheeses. It is less about "pair this wine with this cheese," and more about learning best practices and what to look for in pairings, which to me helps apply it in the future. Also, they were very adamant that while this experience is about showing you some best practices for pairings, ultimately you can pair whatever wine with whatever cheese you like as long as you like it. The restaurant we went to was a cheese restaurant with over 100 cheeses too; I wish we knew earlier in our trip so we could book a meal there as well!
These are the smallest wine tastings that we have had, three wines and mediocre at best Cheese was good but should be as it was at a cheese restaurant Not worth the money Disappointed we did it Met a nice coupe from the US but apart from that it was a poor activity
Bonjour, We appreciate your feedback regarding your experience. We're sorry to hear that certain aspects of the tour did not meet your expectations. We value your input and will take your comments into consideration as we continue to refine and enhance our offerings. Best, Kevin from Ophorus
I decided to do this activity at the start of a month in France, as a way to learn about some new cheeses that I could then look out for. I did taste several that I hadn’t tried before, and the wine pairing was good, so it met my objective. The service/host was ok - it definitely felt like something he did every day and just a job. No introductions between the group or personal connection. Overall it was ok but I would suggest other options would bebetter value for money and more enjoyable
Dear Nykkie, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We appreciate your honest review and are glad to hear that you were able to taste several new cheeses and enjoyed the wine pairing. We're sorry to hear that you felt the service/host lacked a personal touch and that there weren't introductions between the group. We value your input, and we'll certainly take this into consideration for future improvements to enhance the overall experience. Best, Kevin from Ophorus
Host was very knowledgeable and perfect parings of cheese and wine. And met some great fellow travellers!
Very nice event with a carismatic guy informing about the wines and cheeses. A nice venue that I recommend.
We had a lovely time learning about regional cheeses which were paired with appropriate wines. We had plenty of time to enjoy each cheese with a particular glass of wine. The host was knowledgeable and very friendly and his English was excellent.
The host was inviting, funny & very knowledgeable of what wine paired with the cheese on offer. A must tour.
Excellent experience. We learned so much about French wine and how to apply the information to ordering wine when you are out and/or in a wine store. Our family truly enjoyed tasting the delicious cheeses and learning how the cheese can bring the wine to life and vice versa. If you love cheese and wine, I would highly recommend this tasting.
