I enjoyed the experience a lot. The fact that we were a small group was enjoyable. I liked the different places we saw. It was easy to talk to the guide who was really kind and who explain very well. Maybe I was excepting more technical details about the process of wine making, but it's just a reflection I made for myself. And finally, I was very happy with the wine varieties I tasted, which were all very good.
A very interesting experience

We really enjoyed the experience, the guide was very professional and interactive with us, which made the experience very interesting. The timing was good, we weren't in a rush and were able to take some nice photos of the grapes and the château. The wine tour is quite modern, which we liked. Complicated to give a score for the wines as we found them very different from one to another, but it was very good!
