This was a really cool experience -- the small group meant that we could all hear everything and ask whatever questions we had. The guide was super knowledgeable about the wines we were tasting, the specifics of wineries and the wine-making process of the region, and had some cool wine toys he was able to show us. Of course wine is always subjective, but on the whole I enjoyed the wines we tasted. Even the one or two I didn't like I could tell were still good wines, just not to my taste. They will also ship wines home to you (at least to the US). Overall just a great experience.

I had a great time at this dégustation. The guide was very friendly and very knowledgeable about the wines and cheeses provided. She mentioned that she picks the wine differently for different groups and the cheeses in hand so each experience will truly be unique. It is located not very far from Dijon center so it’s the perfect place to start out before going to the Palais des Ducs or doing the Owl tour.

I, who has joined in countless numbers of tastings, can confirm that this was one of the best tastings i have ever had. Professionally done with an amateur spirit. Gives a very good idea about burgundy wines across appellation levels. We were also lucky to be a group of people at similar ages; so, we could enjoy each other s company while tasting and getting tipsy.

My wife and I were the only guests for this tasting event, and Emmeline took a lot of time to tell us about the wine cultivation in Burgundy and answer our questions. We truly enjoyed the event and prefer a combined wine and cheese tasting over a pure wine tasting!

Great experience and would highly recommend this tour. I felt I left there knowibg alit more about what the Burgandy wine area was all about. A fantastic starting point for your further adventures in the area.
