Highly recommend this!

Jessy_K, Apr 2025

Raphaëlle was such a wonderful host. I learned so much at the interactive museum with a little game we played to understand the different parts of wine through all senses (except sound). The amount of wine we were able to taste was incredible and the variety was surprising. I’ve only ever had 2 types of Beaujolais: one labeled “Beaujolais” and one labeled “Beaujolais-Village”. On the tour, we tried white wine, rosé, and a large variety of reds. We visited a larger winery and a smaller family owned organic winery, both offering a great experience. It was lovely to meet with the smaller winemaker directly, it felt super personal and meaningful. I highly highly recommend this experience!

Leave the hustle and bustle to sip wine in the countryside

Pat_J, Oct 2024

This was the last-minute booking for me, but I am very happy!I did it. Enjoyable drive out into the countryside north of Lyon to learn about Beaujolais wines. Two very different tasting experiences, both of them unique and enjoyable in their own way. The first one at a Château winery with beautiful gardens included a walking tutorial on all of the components that give wine its flavor. I’ve been to a lot of wineries in my life and never seen the complexity and the components of wine, broken down quite so well, with all of the senses involved; taste, smell, touch, and visual. The second experience was at a small family owned winery in a picturesque French Village, presided over by the owner. A very enjoyable, intimate setting, where the family showed its passion and its pride for their wines. I really enjoyed this tour, and highly recommend it if you want to get out into the wine country around Lyon, learn some new things, and benefit from a very friendly and knowledgeable guide.

Nice trip with great guide

Beautiful landscape, and some reasonable wine. I think beaujolais reputaion is a little unjust. A good beaujolais is a very good wine and a quite unique taste. Our guide was excellent - great knowledge of both the area and the wine. It was a pleasure!

A great day in Beaujolais!

We had such a beautiful day and experience in Beaujolais. Our guide (Rachel) was very informative from the start of our journey, filling us in on the history of the region, the varietals, terroirs and what to expect. The first stop was a very old estate that had a comprehensive and fun walking experience of the tasting components of wine. This was followed by a tasting of various wines and learning about each. They actually had wines from several villages to try and compare. The next stop was a beautiful hilltop estate in Fleurie and we got to learn about the different stages of their winemaking process unique to Beaujolais. This was followed by another great tasting. The trip was well planned and timed, but our guide really added to the experience with her knowledge and excitement about the region. Just an overall great time.
