Thank you JP for such a beautiful experience. I arranged this trip for my husband as part of our celebrations for his big birthday!! What a great day, the weather was fantastic and the views spectacular. JP gave us a great history of the Chateau and the tour of the wine making facility. It was most interesting. We also tasted...

Our trip to the South of France in August of 2011 would not have been complete without going on Jean Pascal's wine/vineyard tour. JP is extremely knowledgable & personable. He took the time to explain even the smallest of details. Each of the 2 vineyards that we visited where different and special in their own separate ways. The views where... More

We nearly missed the great wine tour.... in the begining it seemed like he did not have enough staff during the week we were in Nice, but he managed to adjust it and we could make it! We were very happy he had time for us - It would have been really pity without his tour…. We really enjoyed our... More

Booked the tour via email and Jean-Pascal was very helpful and efficient. We were collected at our hotel and driven to the first vineyard - Chateau de Cremat in AOC Bellet. The Chateau is worth the visit alone and has lovely views to the mountains and the coast. The cellars are interesting and the four wines we sampled were good.... More

Me and my wife booked the tour of Bellet just a few days before arriving to Nice and there was no problem at all. Jean-Pascal picked us up at our hotel and we were only four people on the tour which made it quite exclusive. We visited two interesting wineries in the Bellet district and it was interesting to compare... More

Me and my family had a fantastic winetour with Jean-Pascal from Degustation Directe that ended up being the highlight of our trip to France. Jean-Pascals warm and classy treatment of us made it a memory that will last forever. He picked up us up at our hotel and even though we had a four month old baby that slowed us... More

I went away with three girlfriends and we did some research ahead of time and found Jean Pascal! He was everything we'd hoped for! He picked us up on time from our hotel and then took us up to the hills to the vineyards and answered our endless questions along the way. We were not experienced wine tasters so the... More

Spent a day with Jean Pascal at two vineyards in Bellet, a tiny wine region in the hills above Nice. Jean Pascal was punctual, professional, fun, and introduced me to a wonderful area that I simply would not have been able to find on my own. By the way, the Bellet wines we tasted were outstanding. Highly recommended! More
