Jaun S

Our wine tasting experience with Chris was honestly the highlight of our Europe trip across Germany, Switzerland and Austria. Whether you are an experienced wine drinker or just starting your journey into the wonderful world of wine, my partner and I highly recommend this experience. Our tour started with Chris introducing us to a locally made Ochsenfurt Rosè followed by a beautiful tour through the historic town. At first glance you could immediately tell that Chris is not only passionate but very knowledge about wine and the history of Oschenfurt. What we loved most about the tour is how Chris tailored it to our experience allowing us to further develop and enhance our wine knowledge while taking into account the different characteristics of wine including the aromas, acidity and residual sugar of wine. It's because of this experience with Chris that we both now know which wines we prefer. This experience wasn't just a wine tasting experience for us but it also allowed us to get to know Chris and his partner, Cecilia who was the photographer during the tour.A highlight of the tour for us is when Chris and Cecilia took us to a local vineyard where we met the owner of the vineyard and tried some of his best wines. Highly recommend!
