A great 2 hours with 8 wines. Along with a very interesting presentation style we were served generous tastings and food pairings. I have visited wineries around the world and this presentation not only kept my interest, it challenged my knowledge and added to it.

This wine tasting experience was exceptional! We learned a lot about French wines, and the tasting came with some great appetizers too. Our host was extremely knowledgeable and knew the answers to all questions asked - it was very impressive. Definitely recommend!

This was a great activity to do with friends, family or even solo. They were very knowledgeable about the different wines and I especially enjoyed learning more about the regions the wines come from. The snacks provided paired well with the wines. I would definitely recommend this experience.

New Wines, New Friends

John_B, May 2026

Small group of 10 (max) people meeting in a cozy, comfortable commercial space in Nice for a blind wine tasting of 8 wine varieties from France. The wines were enjoyable and the event introduces you to other travelers enjoying a similar experience.

If there's anything we could have done to make your experience a 5-star one, I'd always love to hear your feedback. I hope to welcome you back to Nice for another tasting in the future! 🍷

It was a very good class and wine tasting. Enjoyed the wines and learning more about French wine in general. Juliette was very knowledgeable!

Response from Host, Dec 2025

Charlesetta_M, Jun 2025

Close by wine tasting experience. The sommelier was very knowledgeable about the wines, grapes and production process. The room/setup is a little too small but we had an enjoyable experience.

Response from Host, Dec 2025

Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed the wines and the tasting. Next time, I’ll make sure the experience is so good that even the room feels bigger! 😉🍷

Eight Mighty Fine Wines

Jack_H, May 2025

This was a lot of fun. It was far more than a simple wine tasting but a guided tour of France through the wines produced there. Carlo was our guide and he was an excellent teacher. We sampled eight wines, learned the background of each one, and how they’re produced. This was a worthwhile event, and I highly recommend it.

Response from Host, Jun 2025

Thank you for your review! Glad you enjoyed Carlo's explanations and enthusiasm!

Very good experience!

Alexis_M, May 2025

Very good and informational tasting class! Generous pours and 8 wines to try, with snacks for some too! Very good class!

We decided to do this wine tasting last minute and we’re not disappointed. The host was very knowledgeable and provided a lot of information on the different regions in France. We tasted a wide variety of wines and really enjoyed ourselves.

Response from Host, Jun 2025

A Great Time.

Tiffany_S, Apr 2025

This was so fun and informative. It opened our eyes about the wine making process. Definitely add to your itinerary in Nice!

Response from Host, Jun 2025

Thanks for your recommendation!

Educational!

D_l, Mar 2025

Overall, my sister and I had a good time. We learned quite a bit about the various wine regions of France and enjoyed tasting the various wine offerings. I would suggest offering another small bite besides cheese for those who are lactose free or vegan. I informed the company beforehand that I am lactose free but no food substitution was provided for me.

Response from Host, Apr 2025

Thank you for your feedback, we'll keep it in mind for future experiences

Keeley_R, Mar 2025

You will get a great education on wine’s from different areas of France. Not only did we get to taste amazing wine, but we were also taught how to taste them, and how they were produced. We had eight wines in total some of which were paired with foods to bring out different flavor profiles. Overall a good experience for people wanting to expand their knowledge of French wines!

Response from Host, Mar 2025

Thanks for your feedback

Excellent !

Alan_M, Jan 2025

Excellent class. Educational and also really enjoyable. Tasted some very interesting wines. Thoroughly enjoyable evening.

I'm glad you enjoyed the whole experience

Great Experience

Marie_F, Nov 2024

Julia is a great host, very knowledgeable, loved the wines too, enjoyed them all. A great experience and I would highly recommend this event. The room itself is quite basic and could have been a little warmer, I felt a bit chilly by the end but that's only a minor quibble. We had great company with a group of people from Germany and a lovely couple from Mumbai.

Response from Host, Mar 2025

Thank you for your feedback! The tasting room has been redecorated for a warmer feel if you decide to come back!

Excellent Wines and Even Better Information

David_N, Nov 2024

This was a wonderful experience with many excellent wines! Julia was incredibly knowledgeable and shared the details about where each wine came from, and key notes about them all. She also did a wonderful job making it in interactive experience to keep everyone engaged and see what each person was thinking about the wines along the way. She made it a very warm and open environment where there were no wrong answers which made it perfect for learning as we went.

Response from Host, Nov 2024

Thank you for your review, David!

Great learning and bonding experience!

Luis_A, Oct 2024

Great tasting and learning experience, Julia was a fantastic and knowledgeable somelier and host. She made us all feel comfortable sharing our opinions and the two hours flew by. We had such a great time, some of us in the group went out for drinks after. My only note would be the space where the tasting takes place felt like a classroom, it was kind of awkward. I was expecting something more laid back, maybe a more open space, but by the second glass it didn't really matter.

Response from Host, Nov 2024

Thank you Luis!

Amazing Wine Tasting!

Jessica_D, Oct 2024

Julia was an amazing guide and was extremely knowledgeable. She clearly put a lot of thought into the selections and chose really interesting wines from regions all around France. Learned so much from this session, would highly recommend!
