Grape Escapes Moves Into Spain
Grape Escapes are delighted to be supporting Tesco Wine Club once again and would like to introduce our new Spanish tours which will be based in Ribera del Duero.
Located in Spain’s northern plateau, Ribera del Duero is approximately one and a half hours from Madrid. Since the 1990’s, the region has become a premier source of world class red wines. Ribera del Duero was officially designated a D.O region in 1982 and since then the area has been transformed through the replanting of vineyards and the investment in modern winemaking techniques by both small family-run wineries and large corporations. It is also home to arguably Spain’s most prestigious wine, Vega Sicilia.
If you would like more information on our new tours please email us at Jenna@grapeescapes.net and we will send some details to you.
Champagne Tasting Weekends
We organise five types of Champagne Tasting Weekends (Deluxe, Prestige, Harvest, Meet the Maker, and Adventure) as well as two new budget tours - the basic tour and the standard tour. Details of all of these are found on our Champagne Escapes website.
Bordeaux Wine Tasting Tours
We offer six types of Bordeaux Tasting Tours - our Traditional Medoc and St Emilion Wine Tour; our 1855 Classic Clarets Tour; our Premium Claret Tasting Weekend Tour; our Basic Wine Tasting Tour; our Standard Wine Tasting Tour; and our Standard Plus Wine Tour - as well as many private wine tasting tours for individuals, groups and corporate clients. A quality Bordeaux wine tour could very well be one of the best wine tours in France.
