Explore Toulouse Wine Bars with a Local Wine Expert

Excellent tour with a local guide who is a qualified sommelier. We were a group of 4. We visited 3 wine bars and shared about 4 bottles during the tour. All local region wines. At the last bar there was a generous plate of cheese and meats to share. What I like most is the knowledge the guide shares with you about this wine region, which is not well known. It is the insight that makes a trip like this so enjoyable and fun.

Afternoon of indulgence and learning more of Toulouse and the things that make it unique. Tasting of chocolates and pastries spend out through the afternoon as you explore the side streets of Toulouse

Had a great time visiting some local wine spots around Toulouse and some good basic information about French wines! Would go again!

What a way to experience the local wines of Toulouse, ably led by Julie a very knowledgeable Tour Guide. We found the whole experience most enjoyable and relaxing as we wandered off the main throughfares to taste and learn about the wines listed below.

The wine tour is great! Unique spots, nuanced wines, all the 'must know' information and great conversation too. All thanks to the knowledgeable and enthusiastic local guide and sommelier Julie. Who speaks English like she was native to it. The tour took us to three great spots we hadn't found on our own yet. The wines at the different location were each tasty in their own way. She explained about the different wine appellations in southern France and the differences between them and some of the history and current happenings. Including how that affects tastes. And answered all of our questions. In closing we got recommendations for food, drink and wine hotspots not just for Toulouse but also for other locations some of the tour members were traveling to next. So in closing I can definitely recommend this. The price seemed a bit high at first but more than worth it.

One of the best tours I've taken. Personable guide and so knowledgeable! "A must" in Toulouse!

My husband and I took the wine tour with Julie and were absolutely delighted. Julie is charming, chatty and oh so knowledgeable. The entire evening was fascinating and delicious; and just as stated on their website, Julie followed up with where we went, what we tasted and a list of many restaurants and wine bars to try while in Toulouse. I wholeheartedly recommend this tour!

We’re both wine people, so we were excited to learn about the local wines. Jessica did not disappoint, and then some. Not only did we get a wonderful tour of a few wine bars, and an introduction to the local wines, she was also willing to go off-script to answer our many questions about living in Toulouse. Afterwards, she also sent us a great recap of where we went, a very helpful list of wine bars and restaurants, and other useful information. She even had a recommendation for a restaurant in Collioure, which we were going to visit a few days later. We had an amazing time, exceeding expectations. We definitely recommend this tour.

We went to 3 bars. The first had a cool vibe. No name outside. Very old. By the time we left it was super crowded. Most of the description of the provenance was given here with maps. We tasted 2 wines The next stop was a charcuterie bar where we tasted 2 wines. The cheeses, etc were delicious. The third stop was a more crowded place where we had to wait to be seated. We had a choice of red or white to be voted on by our group of 5. There was a very knowledgeable wine drinker in our group. Most of the attention and direction and conversation was dominated by her. Otherwise, our experience was ok. Perhaps, Julie should prearrange with the charcuterie bar to have it prepared before our arrival. We waited 40 minutes before we got the go-ahead to pour the wine and still 5 minutes before the cutting board arrived. We think it was an off night thrown out of sync by a person who demanded all the attention.

Our wine bar tour with Jessica was such a fun way to explore Toulouse. We visited three wine bars while we learned more about wine and the city. She even sent a follow up email with details of the tour and recommendations in Toulouse. A very fun tour!
