Traveler reviews
Great wine.
Good trip, good value for money, 7 wine tastings and some lovely food to accompany the wine. Lot of information about the wine process. Only a short look at the vineyard as it was so hot. Time very very quickly and although it said the experience was 5 hours, we had to walk from the Train station to the Bus station (10/15 mins walk) so didnt leave till 2.30 pm. Too roughly an hour to the Winery/Vineyard. At 5 pm we were advised to finish up and make any purchases as we would be leaving at 5.30. Hours journey back to Bus station, so actually finished at 6.30pm, so it was only a 4 hours trip!!! Could have done with a bit more time, as you didnt really have time to purchase. Although saying that, bottles were priced from around £45/48 minimum!! Go with an open mind and a credit card if you wish to purchase!! I think it should have been advised that pick up was not at the meeting point, this could be a problem for people with walking /mobility issues and considering it was around 40 degrees could have done without the additional walk.
Enjoyed great
It was a great experience to try the original wines . The tour guide was excellent . Over all it was a great trip
Amazing experience
We had an amazing experience and thoroughly enjoyed the variety of wines they offered. The experience is amazing and highly recommended this tour.
When the description...
When the description says, "wine tour," i envision a tour of the vineyards and a glimpse at the wine making process. This was, "you can take a picture for Instagram with these grapevine before we start the tasting." Also, it would be very helpful if they gave the name of the vineyard because we booked 2 tours through Viator and ended up at the same place. That said, this tasting was very nice-good pairings and great explanation of what we were tasting.
The description was 5 hrs...
The description was 5 hrs tour starting at 2 We got on bus 2.30 and drove 50 mins and left vineyard 5.30 Actual tasting and visit lasted 2hrs. Vineyard guide was excellent and good and wines v good. We were allowed additional glasses of wine to try which was v generous
