Wine Society of Texas/Lone Star Skier's Visit

We went on the tour in January, 2019 and had a great time. The first vineyard was spectacular with a 180 degree view of the vineyards and the surrounding mountains. I will never forget having wine and some of the local cheeses and meats while enjoying the view. The raclette lunch was also interesting as we learned about the different types of raclette. The final stop was a local winery and we felt like we were tasting in a comfortable living room as we were treated like members of the family. Thanks for a great time!

Je recommande !

Ayant l’habitude de faire ce genre de tour, j’ai apprécié le soin apporté à l’organisation : prise de contact directe pour discuter de nos attentes et fixer une heure et un lieu de rendez-vous, prise en charge à l’hôtel en bus, pas besoin de s’occuper du transport (on déguste ainsi sans le souci de la conduite...). Une journée magnifique animée par un guide avenant et expert, un repas copieux et chaleureux, des vins riches et surprenants, des paysages sublimes. Je recommande de toute urgence !

De bien belles rencontres

De par mon métier de restauratrice je travaille avec le vin et je suis passionnée du vin. De plus, je suis petite fille de viticulteur... J’ai découvert les plus beaux vignobles du Valais avec des vues à couper le souffle ! J’étais étonnée et enthousiaste de voir comment le vin est travaillé ici et à quel point la passion est la même d’un côté comme de l’autre de la frontière ! Une superbe journée pleine de belles rencontres !
