点评:My wife and I were visiting the Loire Valley for our 25th wedding anniversary and wanted to take a wine tasting tour sampling Sancerre and Pouilly. We researched tours and decided to take this one - awesome decision (pats self on back). Colin was everything you could want in a host - from letting us park our rental car at his home - to driving us around Sancerre to sample wonderful producers that were new to us - using his mastery of the French language to interact with the producers and answer our questions- even getting us a tour of one winemakers’ cellar where we could see wine storage, bottling, labeling, etc. We enjoyed a lovely lunch together and got to know Colin throughout the day- each layer of his personality was more interesting than the last - delightful chap! We learned so much about the soils and environment which impacts the winemaking process- which helped us understand a bit better WHY we liked what we liked! Colin just made the trip so fun and informative- even facilitating our shipping of purchased wine back to the USA.
Thanks for everything Colin!
Everyone else - take this tour - you will be abundantly happy as we were!

感谢科林所做的一切!
各位朋友,参加这次旅行吧,你们一定会像我们一样快乐无比!
