We had a lovely time touring the winery despite the rainy weather. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and answered all the questions our group asked her. She was very personable and made it a fun experience. Plus the wine tasting was great! We learned a lot and enjoyed the wine :)

A very interesting tour to learn how they make French wine. The views of the spectacular vineyards. And the excellent wine side with the explanation of the guide who was very attentive answering all the Group's questions. We bought several bottles for a special occasion that we are waiting for.

Wine tasting fantastic

Fantastic visit to this winery our tour guide who was from Sydney was fantastic and very informative. We booked to go on a guided tour with wine tasting at the end thought we would be in a group but it was just us which ment we got a private tour. Learnt alot and set in beautiful surroundings would highly recommend this tour. Bought a few bottles of wine one of which was in the tasting session not the cheapest but to remind us of our day.
