What to expect
You'll meet your guide and climb into a comfortable van stocked with water and pastries. The morning takes you to your first winery, where a sommelier walks you through several wines at a relaxed cadence—no hurried sips. Mid-day, you'll sit down to lunch, courses matched thoughtfully with what you've tasted. The afternoon brings another estate or two, depending on how the mood takes you. Everyone involved knows their subject thoroughly and leaves space for questions. By day's end, you'll have tasted genuinely, eaten well, and learned something real about the terroir.
