We spent a great afternoon with our guide Chloé. She expertly explained the wine production and aging process. Additionally, she recommended a very good place for dinner (Rosemarie in Montpellier).
Thank you very much for your lovely review! We are delighted that you enjoyed your afternoon with Chloé and appreciated her explanations about wine growing and winemaking. We are also happy that her restaurant recommendation helped make your stay in Montpellier even more enjoyable. We hope to welcome you again soon!
We went in late June and it was not busy because it’s not harvest time. Very small and intimate tour experience (only 5 in our group). Out tour guide, Chloe, was very knowledgeable on the entire vine to bottle process,the history of the two vineyards we toured and how to taste wines. Being a novice wine consumer I walked.away from this experience so much more appreciative and keen to seeing, smelling and tasting differences in wines.
Thank you very much for your wonderful review! We are delighted that you enjoyed this intimate wine experience and that Chloé helped you discover the world of wine in a new way. We are happy to hear that her knowledge and passion made the visit memorable and gave you a deeper appreciation of the vine-to-bottle process. We hope to welcome you again soon in the Languedoc wine region!
Very nice and competent guide. Only downside: missing bread for the tasting. It would better neutralize the taste of the previous wine.
Thank you very much for your review! We are delighted that you enjoyed the tour and appreciated our guide’s friendliness and expertise. Thank you also for your feedback regarding the bread during the tasting. Your comments are very valuable and help us continuously improve our experiences. We hope to welcome you again soon for another wine discovery in the Languedoc region!

David went above and beyond with his enthusiasm, engagement and attitude towards our group. He was informative about the wines, their distinctive notes and was able to competently explain the highly respected process of making and differentiating wines. If you’re in Montpellier I’d highly recommend as you are personally driven to lovely vineyards in smaller groups and everything feels personalised!

Extremely good tour & highly recommended. David who ran our tour hadd spoilt us for anything further- it will be is it going to be like David’s tour! From the moment he picked us up the tour was so informative. We were a small group of just 2 Aussie couples who didn’t know each other but really enjoyed each other’s company & David was the magician who made the afternoon a delight. Very well organised & David knew his subject & we really got a feel for the region & wines. Very relaxed & money well spent. Appreciated his interaction with the wineries where he could lead the small group & tastings.
Thank you so much for your lovely feedback! We’re really happy you enjoyed the tour with David. Creating a relaxed, friendly atmosphere while sharing our passion for the region and its wines is exactly what we aim for. Thank you again for your recommendation!
Cheerful cozy guide. Knew a lot to tell. Keep it up! Tip, a piece of cheese or bread would have been nice at tasting. Do not text while driving.
Thank you for your feedback! We’re glad you enjoyed the guide and his knowledge. We also appreciate your suggestions regarding the tasting and will take them into account. Regarding phone use while driving, safety is a top priority for us, and we will make sure to remind our team of this. Thank you again for helping us improve!
Davide was our tour guide and he was exceptional !! He gave us so much useful information and explained every part of the process during the 2 winery stops. He also talked about the local area with great enthusiasm and we came away from the tour feeling like we had been completely immersed in the terroir and landscape around this beautiful area. The two wineries were different in scale but the wines we tasted in both places were exceptional - the only regret we had is that we could not buy more than one bottle to drink immediately as we were flying back next day with no hold luggage ! We would highly recommend the trip, and especially Davide !
