“Easily the best wine-tasting I've done. Really good exploration of the history of winemaking in the region, types of wine, things to look for, and plenty of back and forth with the unpretentious but very knowledgable guide, who was happy to answer questions, and calls it as he sees it, without being dismissive of anyone - winemakers, or tasters alike. The wines we tasted were all good quality wines - one of them among the best I have ever had - all relevant to the region, and we were given plenty of context for each one. I could not recommend this tasting enough.”
