Not Your Normal Winetasting - This was my first trip to Lyon, and I thought Margaret Rose's class would be a great introduction to the wines of Beaujolais and the Rhone as well as Lyon itself. And it was! She's an excellent advocate and instructor of how to fully appreciate and taste wine -- and the accompanying charcuterie was delicious. It was a very fun, informative afternoon in a dynamic area of Lyon. Highly recommended!!

Fun and Memorable Wine Education - Our wine tasting with Margaret Rose was a highlight of our trip. She was knowledgeable, funny, and helped make the intimidating world of wine easier to grasp. Her sense of humor brought everyone together and helped us feel comfortable offering up our thoughts on each wine. This was much more than simply a "tasting"–-this was an education! Margaret Rose taught us how to approach each wine and explained the basic grape growing/wine making principles that influence the final result. Her lessons helped us appreciate all the delicious wine we had for the remainder of our time in France. Thanks Margaret Rose!

Poor Attitude - The reason for this review is not the reason it was cancelled but because of the attitude of the owner and the lack of communication. I booked this over a month prior and only discovered it was cancelled less with than 24 hours before it was due to start. Tripadvisor refunded the amount in full. However when corresponding on the day (as I only found out via email) with the organiser, she was patronising and didn't seem to respect the fact when an event is cancelled you deserve an explanation and apology. If this has been explained earlier and I didn't have to find out myself then this could have easily been avoided on the organisers part. Such a shame as the reviews were positive, were they written by "actual humans"?
