If you are a wine enthusiast I highly recommend Grapes & Corks wine tours. We had great day, tasting great wines, with great conversation, with a great guy. We learned so much about the region, French history, and wine history making us appreciate all the work that goes in to making these wines. The time really flew by and we were not ready for the day to be over since we felt like there was so much more we could learn.

Nick did a great job of making our trip very entertaining and insightful. Nick was able to make this a very special and personal experience as opposed to most wine tours we've gone on. Nick was very familiar with the wineries that we visited and was able to get us some behind the scenes tours and got us to taste some Grand Cru wines. This took a lot of stress off of us and allowed us to enjoy the tastings, scenery and experiences. Nick took care of payments during the day and we paid in complete at the end of the day. We started the day touring through the countryside and various vineyard plots while learning about terroir and the two grape varietals of the region. We were unfamiliar with the region and left the tour up to Nick's discretion and he did not disappoint.

Nick is very knowledgeable not just about the wines and wineries but the history and geography of the places and owners, driving us through the beautiful countryside in a very comfortable van. The second day was in the Cote de Beaune surrounds.

The first day was in Chablis where we stopped for lunch at Les Trois Bourgeons, excellent French food with a Japanese flair.
