French wine can be complicated. Join Caro Feely accredited Wine Educator for a day on the secret codes that will help you unlock France’s major wine regions.
Part of the secret to understanding wine is understanding geography and grape varietals. In this day course you will discover the major wine regions of France and wine tasting. We cover key white wines and white wine regions in the morning and then red wines in the afternoon. For our midday break we enjoy a 3 course lunch in a local restaurant. You will taste 10 different wines from across France. This full day experience includes a brief visit to the vineyard and to the winery. We recommend doing our full day wine adventure prior to this day to get the most out of the experience.
