A really enjoyable and informative evening - Jerome was friendly, patient and knowledgeable. Plus his English is impeccable !
He was able to pitch his information at just the right level for our group. The meeting point was very picturesque and going down 4 floors (by lift) into the wine tasting cellar, within the deep rock, was a unique experience . We got a great over view of the Rheinhessen area and the distinct areas and methods of production.
We sampled some great wines and will follow up on what I learnt.
We would be happy to go on other events with Jerome and would definitely recommend him.
