This Beaujolais wine tour day begins around 9.00am at your hotel, and we’ll be travelling to the pretty Beaujolais region to meet two wineries in the morning, where we’ll visit the vines, the cellars and taste the wines (including 20th-century wine).
At around 1 o’clock in the afternoon, we’ll head to a magnificent spot in the heights of the Beaujolais region for a picnic.
This moment will be dedicated to a tasting of wines from the 1960s to the present day, to cover the spectrum of the Gamay grape variety through time. The wines will be accompanied by a dozen cheeses and seasonal gourmet products.
The last tasting of the day will happen after the lunch and before returning to Lyon.
As a wine merchant, WSET3 graduate, I’ll be joining you on the day to introduce you to wines of Beaujolais, talk about French wine and its specific characteristics.
A private chauffeur will drive us throughout the day in a comfortable car. Car will depend on bow many people take part on the day. Tesla or Mercedes Class E for couples and Mercedes Class V Van for party of 3 or more people.
Wines that were tasted can be bought and shipped to your home.
