Get the total France wine tour package and discover the true taste of the country
Home to the finest wine in the world
France is home to some of the most renowned vineyards in the world. When we think of wine, we think of Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinot Noir, Merlot and Chardonnay. These French grape varieties are now grown globally, emulating the iconic wines that have been produced in France for centuries.
Wine means a lot to us at France à la Carte, and it plays a central role in our travel experiences. It is much more than just a drink shared between friends; it is a symbol of French identity, history and tradition.
Let us organise a private wine tour for you during your days spent exploring France. Sip on a first-class Burgundy or Bordeaux as your inner connoisseur awakens. We can set aside a few days for you to discover France through its wine culture, tasting the distinct flavours of each region. Choose between the many wine regions France is home to, including Alsace, Bordeaux, Burgundy, Provence, the Loire Valley and, of course, Champagne. Exclusive vineyard tours and wine tasting experiences allow you delve deeper into one of the most cherished aspects of French culture.
Connecting with the soil
The vineyards in France are deeply rooted in the soil they reside on, some chateaux having been passed down from generation to generation. Wine is a legacy that continues to evolve, thanks to the preservation of ancestral knowledge. This, combined with innovative, sustainable methods of winemaking is driving the industry forward. We collaborate with family-run vineyards and organic wineries renowned for producing top-quality wines that receive outstanding reviews.
These small-scale businesses share our love and respect for the environment, many working towards a more eco-conscious approach to wine production. Meet the local winemakers who keep the incredible tradition alive while pushing the craft into new, unchartered territories. Sample rare vintage wines and feel a connection with the sun-soaked earth beneath your feet, as well as with the passionate producers who crafted them. You don’t need to be an expert to enjoy a wine tour in France. Just sit back and savour a crisp glass of Alsace wine as the philosophy of winemaking unfolds in front of you.
A tour among the vineyards
We offer a range of wine experiences on our luxury tours in France, spanning hours or an entire day, and covering renowned regions like Burgundy and Bordeaux, as well as lesser-known areas with rich winemaking traditions. We can arrange exclusive guided tours of Burgundy with a sommelier, revealing how the region produces some of the world’s finest wines. Discover the minerals in the soil, meet the people behind the bottles and learn the importance of time and patience in winemaking.
Refine your palate with a wine-pairing workshop at a Provence château, complemented by local cheeses, or enjoy a tasting in the Loire Valley under an ancient oak tree, then stroll through a prestigious estate that has produced world-class wine for generations. Learn the art of wine blending and craft your own vintage in Bordeaux’s UNESCO-listed Saint Émilion. We even offer a wine safari in Occitanie as part of our tours in France, taking you to the highest point of an eco-wine estate to admire the sweeping vineyards below.
Be the person who spends the day sitting among the vines in a picturesque valley, savoring every single sip of Champagne, Bordeaux or Burgundy - your choice.
