Vacation Wine Tours In Europe: Wine Tasting At Its Best!

Planning a vacation wine tour in Europe has never been easier, thanks to the Internet. Europe is the original home of the greatest wine regions ever. When you take your vacation wine tour in Europe, you should make it a point to make sure your tour includes plenty of stops in the Bordeaux region, the Burgundy region, and Champagne.

Bordeaux Vacation Wine Tour In Europe

The Bordeaux region is one of the world's most famous estates ever. The Chateaux Margaux, Latour, and Lafite Rothschild are not open to the public; however, these exclusive estates open their doors to guests who are taking vacation wine tours in Europe.

On your Bordeaux Prestige Tour, you will get to know the locals of the region who can tell you about the history of Bordeaux and its rise to becoming one of the finest wine regions in the world. Tom and Linda Mays of South Carolina described their tour as intimate and memorable. You will dine on meals prepared by France's premiere chefs, using the freshest ingredients.

Burgundy Vacation Wine Tour In Europe

On your Burgundy tour, you will visit the Grand Cru estates like Romanee Conti, Montrachet, and Chambertin. David and Sandi Wood reported that they "had access to tastings and chateaus that wine enthusiasts can only dream of."

Burgundy is the ultimate wine lover's tour. At VIP tastings in the Cote de Beaune and the Cote de Nuits, you will learn the nuances of burgundy wines and discover surprising secrets about your own palate and your abilities to discern subtle differences in wine tastes.

Champagne Vacation Wine Tour In Europe

The Champagne wine tour is, understandably, the most festive of the European vacation wine tours in the region. Just 90 minutes outside of Paris, Champagne is the perfect weekend destination after spending the week sightseeing in the city.

Champagne is full of surprises, including the tomb of Dom Perignon and the Reims Cathedral, the site of the coronation of the Kings of France. On your premiere Champagne discovery tour or sojourn tour, you will also enjoy an unbelievable meal where every course is matched to the perfect Champagne wine to optimize the dining experience.

Combination Tours

By all means, take advantage of being in Europe by touring more than one of these great wine regions while you are vacationing in Europe. Combine Burgundy and Champagne, Bordeaux and Burgundy, or Bordeaux and Champagne. All your life you will brag about having stayed at legendary Veuve Clicquot and Salon.
