Excellent tour! Mogens Eldrup

She was an extremely engaging narrator and very empathetic in her expressions; simply put, she was excellent. Improvements? I don't quite know what to say. We had many good and varied tastings, so there's nothing to complain about. It was an excellent experience for the price, in the opinion of the four of us. Sincerely, Mogens Eldrup
