A wonderful experience. We had a terrific time touring the Corbière region with Vin en Vacances. We were picked up right at our villa - no driving required. And not only was our guide incredibly knowledgeable, she took us to wineries we'd never have found on our own, with tours from the winemaker himself. Wonderful lunch in a Plus Beaux Villages, as well. Highly recommend!
Two incredible tour days! We emailed Vin en Vacances Tours asking for two days of private wine tasting for our party of four (two couples). I am so glad we found them! Wendy (the owner as it turns out) answered back quickly - she was so responsive through the entire process. She arranged a day in the Carcassonne area, and then a custom day over the border in Spain with Carlos (also amazing!). It was so nice to leave the planning to them, ride in clean comfortable vans, included local lunches and it was obvious they were personally known to the wineries. The knowledge of the area, learning the history, amazing wineries! I would highly recommend letting Wendy and her team plan your day and just enjoy this beautiful area!
An amazing experience. We were guided by Carlos. We had a great conversation with him the whole way in which he really added color to the region that we were visiting, both historically and presently. We visited the high castles in the Rousillon region which were amazing to experience, as well as seeing the internals of a modern working winery and had lunch at a fantastic restaurant. Would very well recommend it. We were also able to arrange the most convenient pickup/drop off location that would work with our canal boat trip.
Wendy arranged a bespoke Minervois tour for our fairly wine knowledgeable party of four. Our guide Kate was excellent. We found her to be very knowledgeable, approachable, extremely customer focused and importantly lots of fun. We visited three interesting wineries which were differentiated by terroir and by their scale. Kate ensured the tastings were selected to match our interests. Unfortunately we were a few days too late to see the end of the harvest being brought in. However, as well as sampling finished wines from previous years one of the wineries took us to taste this year's production under fermentation - quite revelation to see, smell and taste five different wines mid-process from tanks!And just to make sure we coped with the volumes of tastings (we hate to spit!) there was a really nice lunch at a village restaurant ... with more wine.
We had a fabulous day with Rachel who looked after us for the day. The weather was not kind to us but it didn't spoil the day. We all learnt so much about the region and wine making in general. We also visited an olive cooperative which was fascinating and included a tasting of olives and oil. This was followed by an hour on the Canal du Midi with local wines, a lovely local lunch and a trip to Minerve. The day was rounded off with a tour to an amazing chateau estate vineyard with a unique growing methodology and another wine tasting. A fun filled day enjoyed by us all.
