We present five countries where sightseeing combines with a winery visit and, of course, a tasting of exquisite wines.
1. Properly Classic Wine – France
First on the list is the unrivaled France, a country that inspires awe in wine connoisseurs and those who appreciate a good time. The leading wine-producing region, the famous Bordeaux, supplies wine all over the world. It offers as many as 18 wine tour programs, and travel agencies and guides create even more diverse options for connoisseurs.
2. Wildly Sunny Wine – Italy
Italians, known for their love of life, couldn’t resist the opportunity to grow grapes on the fertile lands of the Italian Peninsula. The history of winemaking here dates back some 3,500 years, and today the country boasts over a thousand varieties of vineyards native to its territory. One of the most famous regions is beautiful Tuscany, where hundreds of wines are created.
3. Magical and phantasmagorical wine – Spain
Spain, with its refinements and unique characteristics, creates wines that live up to this image: expressive, with an unusual bouquet, and capable of astonishing results. Rioja is the heart of winemaking, home to the famous cuidad del vino – “city of wine,” where dozens of wineries invite you to taste their creations.
4. Aromatic and home-grown wine – Moldova
Moldova, our neighbor, ranks first among the countries of the former Soviet Union in the diversity of alcoholic beverages. Its small territory produces drinks of varying aging and strength: from sampani and ordinary table wines to divins and cognacs. In Moldova, you are invited to discover the intricacies of the winemaking process at 144 wineries!
5. Exotic and fragrant wine – South Africa
You can appreciate the contribution of hot African soils to the world of wine by visiting South Africa. The first grapevines were brought here by the Dutch and planted in the gardens of the West India Company. Today, the renowned soils of South Africa’s main wine region, Stellenbosch, not only nourish exquisite Sauvignon and Chardonnay varieties, but also impart them with a unique flavor, distinctive aroma, and a pleasant, lingering finish.
