Our guide was very knowledgeable, And the restaurant was very cozy and quaint. The cheese cave is definitely something to see! The cheese and wine pairings were wonderful, and we got to try some things that we never would have tried if we were on our own.

Bond…James Bond is a man of great knowledge and impeccable taste. He took us on an amazing journey through France using cheese, wine, and wit as his vehicle. Highly recommend, would do it again.

The Joy of cheese

We had such a lovely time and we're so well looked after by our gracious and charming host, aka 'James Bond'...lol. We got treated to a selection of 9 delcious cheeses from various regions of France and 3 carefully chosen wines to accompany the cheese and bread. It was delightful way pass the late morning/early afternoon. We missed out on the offer of a tour of the cellar as we are travelling with a toddler who needed to take her back to our accommodation. Will happily return and highly recommend it especially to first time visitors to Bordeaux. Super!

Superb experience. Lovely restaurant in the heart of Bordeaux. The cheese cellar is amazing with so many different cheeses. Francois who told us about all of the different cheese regions and cheese types was lovely. So much information and so interesting. And then the tasting was fantastic. Nine different cheeses, all of them delicious and three different wines. I would strongly recommend this experience and certainly good value.

We ended up being the only two people and I am sorry for those that did not join us. Wonderful hostess with a great selection of cheese and wine. The cheese cave is a sight to behold in itself. A must when visiting Bordeaux.

My friend and I had a wonderful time tasting a great range of cheese with a fab selection of white, red and a dessert wine. The cheese and bread were plentiful and it was a great experience. The hostess was very knowledgeable and friendly and allowed us to just take our time to enjoy the treats. Great value for money too

A Heaven of Wine and Cheese!!!

This was a delicious cheese and wine tasting. We were so unbelievably full and happy at the end. The only suggestion I would make is maybe to have someone to talk a little more about the cheese and wine process in France. We had a lot of questions and ended up asking the guided group next to us. Overall very nice experience that we would absolutely do a second time.
