I can't go along with all these positive judgments. The museum shares much knowledge, even \wine experts\ will learn something. But it is a pity, 1.) that many pieces have no explanation, other explanations cannot be seen, because some parts of the rooms are very dark; even the objects suffer from the darkness. 2) that one cannot go through without waiting for further entrance at some places, because there are video performances at fixed times. 3.) The movies are interesting in a certain way, but a kind of advertisement for the region, the music and singing is a kind of entertainment that I feed absorbed, interesting to get information. All in all, one loses unexpectedly much time by waiting. 4.) The friendly staff is aware to mention the closing times of the different parts of the offered rooms, but they don't mention and it is impossible even in the leaflet to see how far away the garden is. On the other hand, I cannot understand why the garden cannot close at the same time as the museum. In the end, one feels cheated, because by waiting, one has to blame oneself for the long time spent in the museum.

Family outing. Nice museum. Good gift shop. Very good restaurant. Worth a visit.
An interesting museum dealing with just about every aspect of wine, from bottling to transportation to tasting and everything in-between. It has a few interactive areas to appeal to children, although I'm not sure how many would really appreciate this museum. There is also an included wine tasting with 2 wines. So why did I only give 3 stars? As an English speaker with weak French skills, there were a number of plaques without any English translation. But most importantly, I found the museum rather pricey: 20. There are 4 areas to view: The hamlet, the train station, the gardens and the wine cellar. When I came on October 10, the garden and wine cellar had just closed for the year, but I still had to pay full price. I'm sorry, but paying full price for half of the displays doesn't sit well with me.
Nicely done. Service, movies and 2 glasses of wine with great sommelier. Did not care much about the plant and lack of info about winery. But would recommend overall
Abosolutely amazing food
A must do visit in the area. Awesome restaurant and staff.
A wonderful audio visual experience in the museum. Very clever, and very charming.
Dont miss this place! It's only 1h45 from Geneva and 35 minutes from Lyon.It is not only a wine experience but also a voyage through the Beaujolais region. The place is amazing. Adults and children will learn while having fun walking through the attractions and the museum. Every step allows to discover the passion of the owners : The Station, the garden with bicycles and a mini-golf, the winemaking process. The staff is dedicated and helpful. The owners are on the site most of the time and always available to chat and share their passion. For wine experts, there is a dedicated room to taste and discover the wines of the region. The restaurant offers a great selection of local specialities at a very good price. Dont miss \The Boutique\ a great place to shop souvenirs and products fitting all budgets. Had a great time and will most certainly go back before Christmas as everyone we met insisted on the magical atmosphere at the end of the year.
