A highlight of our Loire Valley visit! - We had a wonderful afternoon and learned so much about wine-making in France and wine in general. It was fascinating to learn about how complex the process is, and about the specificities of the AOC system. We walked through the vineyard, visited the wine cellar, got to see some of the machinery in action, and tasted delicious wines paired with local cheeses. Myriam was a wonderful guide, so knowledgeable and patient and willing to answer all our questions. Would highly recommend! This was definitely a highlight of our visit to the Loire Valley.

Best Vineyard to Tasting Tour - Miriam was passionate and knowledgeable about the work of winemaking! We loved the hilly, long walk in the vineyard. The tasting is truly wonderful and in depth and the local food boards were amazing.

You’ll end up being filled with knowledge, wine and food! - We learned more from Myriam than on any other previous winery “tour.” You could feel her passion for her family’s business. We appreciated as well the generous “pours” when it came to taste testing the wines along with a veritable banquet of nibbles to enjoy with them.

Best Tour of Our Visit to Loire Valley - We went to this tour earlier in the week. Whether you are new or experienced in wine tasting, highly recommend this tour. We enjoy wine and learned a lot on this tour. Myriam explained the modern and old wine process and took us out to the grape vine fields. She explained how to maintain productive vines. Then we went to see houses built into the hillside for wine storage. There are a lot of mechanized and manual labor to produce a bottle of wine. We returned to the shop and sat down to a variety of sumptuous charcuterie and wine pairings. Myriam was always open to questions and the tour had ample time to absorb the information. For us this was the best tour in Loire Valley.

Amazing wine tour - Myriam our host, was absolutely amazing. She was very knowledgeable and passionate about her vineyard. She was genuine and personable, taking an interest in her guests. She went into a lot of detail and was very eager to answer any questions the group had. It was a group of 12 people, which was the perfect size. The tour started at the shop and we made our way up to the vineyard where we learnt about the grapes, the topography, and so much more. Then we made our way into the cellar, and finally sampled 6 different and delicious wines that came with many food pairings. We had an amazing time and would definitely recommend to any wine lover!

Great wine tour with Myriam - This was our first wine tour in France and we loved it. Myriam was great showing us the vineyards, process and cellar. We learned so much. The food chosen for the degustation was simply amazing with all types of regional cheeses and spreads. Highly recommended if you are in this region.

Vineyard tour at Alain Robert, Chancay - Myriam took us on a journey from the vines to the bottle - she was a super host - engaging and attentive. She was extremely knowledgable, and clearly has a passion for sharing her knowledge and experience with guests. We walked to the vineyard, then through the production facility, through to the caves, learning about the process along the way. We finished up with a wine tasting at the end, accompanied by delicious local meats and cheeses. This was a fantastic end to our holiday and I would highly recommend it.
