Wine tasting tours

The best for wine tasting beginners is to take a guided tour to places where wineries are located. These tours usually include well-known wineries and guided wine tastings session hosted by wine experts. These guided sessions can be an exceptional eye opener for newcomers, but also for the experienced wine enthusiast. You can taste a wide variety of wines at the places where they are manufactured. And you can also learn much about wine making, storage, food matching and also about history of the wine and the local history.

But wine tours are not only about wine tasting. Of course at the end of every tour you can buy wine that you liked, and for many people this is the start of their own private wine collection. Attending such wine tasting tours you also get to know a lot about the way the grapes are cultivated and collected, about local folklore, cuisine and finally how grapes get processed for the wine. The bottom line: making these tours you will have the best time ever. We venture to say that after you have returned from your first wine tasting tour, you will make a list of all places and countries you want to visit to continue your quest for good taste.
