What travellers says about Bordeaux Wineries

Derwin
Derwin October 13, 2021
It was great! It was great! The owner showed us around himself – a very warm host and his passion for the vineyard and wine making process really shone through. Also the wines themselves were really excellent and my favourite type of style, so we bought a few bottles to take home! Thanks so much for setting it up.
