My wife and I love Burgundian wine, cycling and the beautiful French countryside. This tour was…read moreeverything we had hoped. Florian shared his extensive knowledge of local wine accompanied with the region's history. Touring the area by bike gives you the opportunity to really take in the incredible sights and smells of the area. After a short ride, we stopped for a snack and a glass of local wine. Florian even shared produce from his garden. Our next stop was an explanation of a plat of roadside vines. Then, a short bike to Chassagne Montrachet. After touring the winery, we were treated to a very informative tasting by winery staff. We were able to experience the differences in wines due to their distinct terrior. Our next stop was a picnic style lunch at a very nice restaurant. It really gave our group an opportunity to chat and really enjoy Burgundy, over food and wine. We also discovered Florian's home town, Rully, makes very nice wine. After an enjoyable lunch, we cycled to Pommard. There was a headwind, but still a lovely ride. Domaine Lejeune was the last stop of our tour and it was a lovely ending. We were treated to a winery tour during harvest. Seeing the action at the sorting table was a bonus for a winelover. The tasting did not disappoint. We enjoyed wines from Pommard and Mersault. Two of my favorite Burgundian wines! From Pommard, we were transferred back to the pickup location(Tourist Office) by van. Our full day tour seemed to pass quickly and were appreciative to have taken in so much of Burgundy in such a short period. I recommend you ask questions and by an active participant in the tour. Florian is an excellent tour guide who's knowledge extends much further than the local wine and a fun guy to spend the day with. Daryl Gaitan

She offered to pick us up from the station when we got in (we had 1/2 hour from when our train arrived and when the tour started). You give them your credit card but that's only for holding your spot on the tour. No charges were noted from our credit card. After the tour is over, you pay Laurence for the trip with cash. On the tour- Laurence was very knowledgable about presenting the three locations. We opted for three wineries. She presented the first cellar, the second cellar and third was presented by the wineries staff. I loved learning about the different regions and different wines! Definitely had some of the most amazing wines of my life on this tour. From the 2nd winery, Vincent Sauvestre, I fell in love with the Pommard and Volnay. I loved the buttery aftertaste of the Pommard and the light buttery fruity taste of the Volnay. I am enlightened. The scales have fallen off my eyes. I never knew French wines could be so amazing. The only pitfall was another French patron who ridiculed our group for not knowing French. Unfortunately, some of us did know French. And knew he was sh*t talking us. Not cool. He turned red when he realized we knew he was talking about us. From the third winery, we had a white Chardonnay called Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru. That first sip forever changed how I look at wine. It was crisp, clean, slightly sweet and so flavorful. It tasted of rich minerals from the Beaune soil. It was the best white wine of my life. I was really sad to learn the price (88 Euros a bottle). Thanks for the enlightening journey! I had an amazing time!

My husband and I were celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary and had 3 nights planned in the…read moreBurgundy region. Wanting an efficient "taste" of the region we decided to take a privately escorted tour. We decided on Burgundy on a Plate based on the very interesting tours that Sue offered as we were looking for something more unique, more personal and more local and Burgundy on a Plate appeared as a huge standout. Since our joint goal was to learn as much as we could about the wine, region and terroir we wanted an english speaker who could translate the intricacies of the region in a detailed manner. As much as we are fascinated with the wines of the region we were also excited and intrigued about truffles, foods, and fruits of the region. Sue is the type of person you find yourself wanting to spend more time with. She is knowledgeable, witty, and very charming. We enjoyed her "joie de vivre" and her passion for France, Burgundy, wine and all things gourmet. She was very organized and timely with her domaine visits, and seemed to have good rapport with the vintners. I talked on the 'phone with Sue ahead of time which was well worth doing as we had the best customized tour possible.

Our host used to be a sommelier in Paris and had extensive knowledge of wines and food pairings and great vintages.......he knew his stuff We purchased 2 cases of a mixture of everything we tried and let me tell you it could not have been easier. By shipping to the US, not only was shipping free of charge but we also got a 20% VAT price reduction. Surely made the decision easy to get that extra bottle or 12 since we didn't have to schlep it back in our luggage Arrived within the week via FedEx and the experience from start to finish was such a joy.

We booked and paid 500 Euros for a private tour with owner Christian Otel. One month prior to our…read morearrival our son, who was active duty military, passed away. I wrote immediately and informed Christina of the tragedy and said we would not be coming to France due to the horrific event. Christina wrote back "I'm sorry" and a few other words. I am aware she has a no refund policy but I wrote a few weeks later and asked for some empathy and would she consider a refund in view of the extenuating circumstances? Christina replied "I will not refund you as per my policy". Can you imagine a human being, let alone a small business person being so callous? I booked and paid deposits (or the full amount) to 14 separate events for our trip. EVERY single business gave us a full refund INCLUDING the airlines. The airlines never give you a refund, however due to the horrific event of the loss of our son, every business or person we had contracted with has been beyond wonderful except for Burgundy Wine School. It is hard to believe that anyone, I don't care who you are, could be this selfish of a human being? Christina did offer for us to come at some later date or give our purchase away. Really? Would I be willing to spend a day with person who cares so little about a fellow human being? It makes me wonder how she would treat one while on tour with this attitude? I have no opinion of Christina's wine knowledge one was or the other.

They had a tasting part to the tour and there was another group of Americans there as well. It was as if the two guys had been drinking a while and were tipsy and mocking us. Other than that bit of rudeness, it was great. I would have loved to have bought some wine but it was incredibly expensive to ship and the dollar to euro was just silly off balance. It would have been a fortune to send it home.
