Some friends gave my wife Terry a gift of a vineyard share in Chateau Haut Garrigue for 2012 and 2013. So in March 2013 we decided to pay a visit to see her row and of course to collect the 24 bottles of Merlot which came as part of this gift! We stayed for two nights in the Wine Cottage... More

My girlfriend surprised me with a weekend trip to stay at chateau hair garride this past February and we couldn't have asked for anything more. Fantastic course on wine, Caro is passionate about everything on the farm, and explains their whole process impeccably. The best thing though was staying there. If you can I totally recommend it, you will not... More

We stayed at the Chateau Haut Garrigue's Wine Cottage for 4 days in March, 2012. We participated in wine tours, wine classes and a cooking class. These experiences exceeded our expectations in every regard! The Feely family welcomed us to their fantastic organic, biodynamic winery and Caro taught us so much about this region and it's wine. As well, we... More

We spent 4 nights at the Feely's Wine Lodge and thouroughly enjoyed the 5 days of exploring St.Emilion, Sausignac, Bergerac, and Medoc. The guided tours whether by driving or walking were very refreshing and informational. Caroline's passion and enthusiasim for the industry and region was the prime ingredient for each of the activities. I would recommend a stay at the... More

We had an excellent introduction into wine making by Sean and Caro. This was the whole 9 yards! We walked amongst the vines, got to pick a few bunches, saw how the wine was made, got to understand the world of blending, and got to taste most if not all of their repertoire! We have been to Sonoma, Stellenbosch, Loire,... More

My wife and I, along with her mother and sister, spent a wonderful day with Caro in St. Emilion and environs. We visited Chateau Cadet Bon and Chateau Fonplegade, and had lunch in a little restaurant right off the vineyards. The two cheateaux are very different (Fonplegard is very polished; Cadet Bon is very personal), and between them you get... More

My wife and I spent a day touring St. Emilion with Caro, it was the highlight of our 11 day trip to Europe (mostly France). Caro was insightful, engaging and arranged terrific visits to two vineyards and a lunch at a great local restaurant. The small group (it was just the two of us and Caro) made it very inviting...

We spent a day with Caro visiting the two wineries in St. Emilion - what a fantastic day. Caro is knowledgeable, friendly, engaging, interesting and interested - we enjoyed our time with her including a wonderful lunch. This tour was a highlight of our trip to France. You'll miss out if you experience the Bordeaux wine region without Caro's expertise!

Went for a two day break with three other guys. Fabulous experience ! Plenty of variety - walking around the vineyard, information delivered in an easily followed way, tasting, great food, more tasting, blending your own bottle of wine, more tasting, visits to a couple of chateaux in Saint Emilion, more tasting, brilliant lunch in an unpretentious country auberge, more...
