Overrated and not for beginners
Alexei_K, Aug 2024
It was overall an interesting experience, great wines. We were disappointed, however, by the educational value - the amount of information provided by the guide, Thierry, seemed minimal and not really tailored to our level (relative beginners). He was also for most part serving simultaneously us and another couple, and seemingly spending more time with them (as they may had appeared more likely potential buyers). The degustation cards provided were not helpful at all - at least they should have included the list of terms required for that or some kind of guidelines.
Responses from Alexandre P
Dear Alexei,
Thank you for the time you took to let us know your feeling about your experience with us.
We always do our best to tailor made our tasting workshop and the time our guest spend with us.
Our goal at Millésimes à la Carte is to be as close as possible to your level and knowledge about Burgundy and wine in general. All questions are welcome and we are more than okay to stay more time with our guest to answer everything they want to know.
I’m very sorry you felt abandonned at some time of your tasting. As all tasting experiences are private, we are sometimes forced to answer other guests or to welcome our clients in the shop. It’s never a way to avoid questions or discussion.
I’m disapointed to learn afterward, that, despite the around 2 hours spent in our tasting room, it didn’t fit all your expectations.
I’ll finally remember that you found our experience overall interesting. That’s why we’ve created those private tastings, so you can learn more about our wine region and french wines in general.
Best regards
Alexandre

Very nice wine tasting. Host Thierry was very engaged and learned us a lot about Burgundy wines, the differences and specifics from every area. Much appreciated!
Great Burgundy Tasting

My wife and I purchased the Burgundy wine tasting (4 whites and 4 reds). Alex led us through the tasting and we learned quite a bit about the soils and locations in Burgundy. I highly recommend this tasting to anyone that wants to taste great expressions of the wide variety of wines from Burgundy.
A work of art

Alex provided an excellent selection of white and red wines. He explained the regions, the aging process and the difference in the tastes of the wines. Each one was an individual with its own personality and notes. I enjoy understanding the development of the wines, the effects the soil, the grapes es and the regions it comes from and how that affects the flavor and personality of the wine. If I could have a wine cellar Alex would be choosing my wines.
Great experience in a Burgundy wine tasting session

Great experience! It our first time visiting the wine tasting facility. We arrived and met our guide. He is a very respectful and nice person. He placed us around the table and told us the histories of 8 different Burgundy wines. He would pure some wine into our glasses after each story. Also he gave us a questionnaire regarding each wine we tasted. He is a very knowledgeable person and he definitely helped us learning much more about the wines we are familiar with and about the wines we have not tasted before! Great experience and a unique opportunity to purchase a bottle of wine in his wine store located within the same building.
