The Wine Compass

Je ne peux que vous conseiller d’y aller les yeux fermés ! Matthieu nous accueille dans son caveau avec beaucoup de bienveillance, de gentillesse et d’attention. Matthieu est un œnologue passionné et passionnant ! La dégustation est généreuse et les échanges riches ! Expérience à faire et refaire ! Merci Matthieu !

I cannot recommend Matthieu's tasting course highly enough. He was friendly and enthusiastic and made something that often seems esoteric accessible and informative. I was delighted with his approach--I had heard of the 'Le Nez du Vin' kits but had never had a chance to play with the essential oils and learn to identify and taste the complex variables in wines. This course greatly expanded my appreciation for the sommelier's art and made going to caves and tastings more intriguing and playful. Matthieu puts his visitors at ease, assuring them that 'the best wine is the one you like.' His course was a highlight of our visit to Dijon and Burgundy and I'm very glad we did this at the beginning of our trip as it opened up my senses to so much possibility. A thousand thank-yous!

c'etait notre premiere fois de faire un Wine tasting. tout s'est tres bien passe et on a appris beaucoup de choses et goute de tres bons vins. on recommande! 5 sur 5. Merci

Un approche ludique et compréhensible . Nous avons fini notre weekend bourguignon sur une excellente note .

We had a great time! Matthieu is very friendly and clearly very knowledgeable about wine. We managed to taste 6 different wines from Burgundy (3 whites, 3 reds). It was a fantastic experience, and we really appreciated the variety and the expertise shared during the tasting. Highly recommend it for anyone looking to explore Burgundy's wines!

L'activité chez The Wine Compass s'est déroulée à merveille ! Pauline a été de très bons conseils, à l'écoute et passionnée, ce qui a rendu l'expérience encore plus agréable. Tout était parfaitement organisé, et nous avons passé un excellent moment. Nous recommandons sans hésiter cette activité et reviendrons sûrement pour tester une autre formule !

Super expérience, nous avons adoré !

I recently had the pleasure of attending their atelier de dégustation that gave us a great introduction to wine tasting. The atmosphere was great, and the setting is really fantastic. The selection of wines was nothing short of spectacular. The sommelier's insights were both enlightening and engaging, giving us great explanations on the nuances of flavor and aroma. What set this atelier apart was the perfect balance between education and sensory delight. The discussion flowed naturally with the wine tasting. In total, we got to taste 6 different wines from the region (3 whites and 3 reds), and the selection of wines in the boutique is also great if you want to bring back a few bottles! Whether you're a seasoned connoisseur or a curious newcomer, this experience is an absolute must for anyone looking to deepen their appreciation of wine.

We learned so much about wine and burgundy terroire. Matthieu is a superbe host and teacher, he is passionate and share it. I recommend and will do it again when we are back in Dijon!

Pauline était très sympathique, accueillante, souriante et professionnelle. Le contenu de la présentation et de la dégustation était parfait et correspondait en tous points à nos attentes. Merci !
