Amazing Wine Tour . Superb private wine tour . Vince collected us from our hotel in Bergerac and we visited 3 vineyards ( Inc lunch at the 2nd). Vince’s knowledge / passion shone through as did the winemakers. By far the most interesting wine tour we have been on . Lunch was outstanding overlooking the vineyards ( the tomato salad OMG!). Tasted 17 different wines in total. The communications with Sue when booking is first class.

Highly recommend this as a day out to wine lovers We had such a gorgeous day with Vince and Sue. They picked us up from our b&b, and took us to several vineyard and wine producers in the local region, explaining the area to us and providing really useful insights. There was no pressure to buy (although we did) and it included the most wonderful and romantic lunch overlooking a vineyard! Would highly recommend as a day out!

Vineyards shared with passion We had an exceptional day with Vince and Sue, and learned so much about the production of wine and the effects of climate change. They love what they do and their passion was easy to share. We visited three excellent vineyards and each owner shared their knowledge with us, and their ideas for the future of wine making. The highlight was the picnic for lunch where we felt we were on a film set - the company of their lovely American cocker spaniel helped! We learned so much and would recommend this to anyone as a very special day out.

Wonderful - Not to be missed Quite simply an exceptional day!Vince and Sue are friendly, efficient, knowledgeable and passionate about their work. They are easy company and great fun to be with. It is clear that they love what they are doing and have a huge respect for the Bergerac winemakers.Our day was enjoyable, informative, perfectly paced and memorable.We were able to enjoy attentive service at two fantastic vineyards, with a great wine tasting experience and a beautiful picnic lunch amongst the vines.Head and shoulders above any other wine tasting experience that we have had in the past.

Relaxed and well-planned Sue and Vince led a seamless tour. We went to two contrasting vineyards which was interesting to see. There was little to no sales pressure from either. The day was well planned and not rushed. The lunch Sue prepared was lovely in beautiful surroundings and catered very well to vegetarians and vegans. We were a big group of 13 so could have a private tour on our bus.

Excellent Sue and Vince were great tour guides. They really know their wines and you can tell it is their passion. Vince even works in the vineyards sometimes. Vince picked us up from Beynac and took four of us the Bergerac, a region where they still have family owned vineyards. We saw a vineyard in the morning, a tasting with a picnic lunch and then a third winery in the afternoon. In each case the owner of the vineyard came out an explained his techniques for wine making. We learned about the vines and barrels and sampled the wines which were fabulous. At lunch Sue explained the wines we were drinking. Vince and Sue are a delight they told us about their life in the Dordogne and now they settled here from the UK. On the way home we chatted with Sue about wines and travel. It was as though they were old friends who know a lot about wine. I learned so much and had a fabulous time!

A fantastic experience! We had a superb day today with Vince & Sue. It really was perfect! Three lovely vineyards with fascinating information sessions (all by really knowledgeable and charming vineyard owners) followed by tastings and, of course, a great lunch. Plus buying some wine to take home! We’ve lived in this area for many years and I wish we’d done this ages ago. Highly recommended!

If you drink wine and like it.. this is a must do This is a family run business which complements the vineyards they take you to as they are also family run operations (no large corporations to be found here). We had a smashing day, one for the memory books for sure.. here's a few reasons we thought it was great:1) We like drinking wine but know little about it. Vince taught us so much through out the day but in such a gentle informative way. He really did recognise your level and adapt what he was saying to that.. thanks vince!2) The vineyards we visited were all local. We met the owners who are doing their best to create something they are very proud of. This tour gives you access I suspect you simply wouldn't get by pulling up and knocking on the door3) There is a wine for everyone. We tried 16 in the day and I can't say we loved them all you but I can say we bought a lot back with us. Its great to sample all the wines they are making (especially their speciality wines) 4) Lunch was great - Sue is a fantastic host. Under tree, in the sun, view for miles, bottle of wine .. whats not to love! 5) Taxis in France are expensive. This makes this day out great value. No one has to worry about driving for the day, food and water is all provided, you secure decade's worth of knowledge from both Vince and the winemakers. I could go on..Its a relaxing day where you can leave the world behind and explore what the Dordogne Winemakers have to offer!

Relaxed, knowledgable afternoon tour Sue and Vincent made every effort to accommodate us and put on a beautiful and informative afternoon of wine tasting. Starting with a lunch of delicious local produce amongst the vines of Pecharmant, Vincent shared his extensive knowledge of the wines and production around Bergerac. The tour took in both local family run vineyards and more progressive ‘new comers’ to the area. Dordogne Vineyard Tours is expertly showcasing the hidden wines of the Bergerac appellation regions.

We had an amazing private tour with our party of 5. Vincent took us to three vineyards where some of the Bergerac signature wines are produced. He is an amazing host and taught us so much about the making of wine in this region. Vincent has a good relationship with the winemakers and arranged it so that the winemakers told us about their family run businesses and that they provided the tasting of their amazing wines. Sue, who is super loveable, prepared an amazing lunch for us which we enjoyed at one of the vineyards. I would recommend any wine enthusiast in the area to book the tour with Vincent and Sue. What an amazing day! Thanks again Vincent and Sue!!

We've been on wine tours before but what set this one apart was that we visited 3 Bergerac vineyards who, alongside making traditional Bergerac wines, are innovating in order to offer unusual wines. We really felt we got a glimpse into what Bergerac is going to be offering in the future. At each vineyard we actually met the owners of the vineyard, not just a sales person, each of whom clearly demonstrated their passion and their ambition for their work. What surprised me was that each explained how important regularly tasting the wine in production is. I'd expected it to be wholly based on science, but that isn't the case. We had lunch in the shade of a massive tree next to the vines in one of the vineyards. It was a delicious lunch, paired with a rosé from the vineyard. The whole organisation was smooth - being picked up in the morning, the van was cooled every time we got back into it, Vince was a fountain of knowledge and didn't care if we asked basic questions about winemaking! If you enjoy wine and want to be immersed in seeing, smelling and tasting how wine is made, this tour is for you. It will probably be the highlight of your holiday.

“It’s almost impossible to describe how amazing a tour with Sue and Vince is. Vince has incredible knowledge of the many facets of wine making and has developed deep personal relationships with unique and interesting family run vineyards. Vince’s ability to balance sharing his depth of wine detail with a fun and full day is a skill not matched by many tours. Both Vince and Sue are passionate about providing a tour that is beyond expectations in all aspects. I will forever remember sitting in a vineyard, eating a delicious and fresh French lunch with a wonderful glass of rose. Thanks for giving us a day to remember.”

I would suggest anyone visiting this region to book onto this. We learnt so much from Vince during our tour of various appellations, each area we visited having it's own unique history and approach to wine making. The lunch provided was amazing and this really was the highlight of our stay. Thank you to Vince and Sue for being so welcoming. Claire and Mike.

We had a really nice private tour with Vincent last week! He knows almost everything about wine and the vineyard himself, so gives you a lot of information you will keep in mind while choosing your wines after this tour. Sue made a really good lunch, it was a nice day which gave us a lot more knowledge how to find our perfect wine!

This was the best wine tour we’ve ever been on. Vince has an amazing depth of knowledge he shared with us that none of the wine tours in Italy or California ever provided. Sue gave us a fantastic picnic lunch in a stunning location. It was an intimate tour. We met the owners of all the small local vineyards in various appellations. It was a truly charming tour company to spend the day with. Well worth the money.
