2h00 certainly nice, but not worth the rates charged

Preliminary presentation too scattered.

The welcome isn't exactly warm, and you get the feeling that it's a bit of a factory, with one tour and workshop after another... we didn't get any explanations about the place, even though these cellars are magnificent! Still, it's great fun to walk out with your own bottle and personalized label. I'd recommend the concept, but not this company.

Hello, we really appreciated Jean-Baptiste's presentation and the concept of blending various monocepage wines. Thank you for this wonderful discovery, Yours sincerely Florence and Marc Lobet

Very dynamic and caring sommelier. Lots of very precise explanations. The blending of grape varieties is a good idea, but ultimately rather complex for amateurs.

Superb experience where for 2 hours we were oenologists! The only downside is that an extra half-hour would be great for keeping up the speed.

Very nice presentation of French vineyards....I learned a lot. Interesting experience creating our own wine

An interesting and enjoyable workshop! On the other hand, the time dedicated to creating your own wine was too short (no time to try it out, you already have to hand in your copy), and a bit short for tasting the charcuterie and cheese board if you've taken one ... it's a shame!

The host is a great teacher, and the setting lends itself well to learning about wines. The wines selected are a little too similar in taste, but are still interesting to taste.
