Enlightening tour and tasting! - Thomas was a wonderful guide and we learned so much about French wines! We were taught some sommelier basics and were shown all the different scent notes you can find in the wines we were going to try. The cellar was really cool, there were so many bottles aging. The tasting part was really lovely and educational. We learned about how to look at wines and learn things about them from sight and smell. The wines and cheese and sausage pairings were really delicious. I would definitely recommend this to my friends and family.

What a fun experience!... - What a fun experience! The wine tasting/pairing was definitely the best part. We learned so much from Thomas about the dynamics of wine and how different food combinations pair/change the wine. Would definitely recommend adding to your Amboise itinerary.

Just an ok experience - The wine tasting tour was very well organized, and our guide was enthusiastic and knowledgeable. However, the actual tasting experience felt a bit underwhelming for me—probably just not my kind of thing.
