Wine Tasting Experiences at Partner Tourist Sites
Wine Culture activities in a tourist site or at your place of accommodation.
Savour the sensations, the emotions, the journey and the escape through the wines during my tasting workshops in exceptional sites or at home.
Discover a unique, emotional and exceptional journey through rare wines by exploring the world of wine. A bottle of wine becomes a true source of pleasure when it is shared with the right people, tasted under the right conditions and accompanied by the right food.
For this unforgettable experience, GD Millesimes invites you to take part in a gastronomic discovery or a journey through the vintages.
- Activities for family, friends, special events (cocktail party, bachelor/bachelorette party, etc.): “Gastronomy Discoveries”
- Activities for tourist groups: “Wine from the Renaissance era till today”; “Gastronomy Discoveries”; “Time evolution of Wine”. Customized for multiple audiences, depending on the group’s motivation.
- Team building activities: “How to serve a Loire Valley wine”. Wine-related game, original and fun, designed for several teams.
- Customized activities designed to discover the evolution of the wines through time and lift the veil on the beliefs that an old vintage is bound to be good: “Time evolution of Wine”.
These activities can be organized at most of the touristic sites in the Loire Valley (châteaux, boats, etc.) or at your place of accommodation.
They can be customized as you desire, especially if you wish to discover specific vintages for personal reasons
(year of birth, first year job anniversary in the company, etc.).
The bottle is invoiced at the price of my wines.
Please note that there will be additional travel costs beyond 30 km. Don't hesitate to contact me to book your place in one of my wine tasting workshops and enjoy a unique wine and food tasting experience.
