Mid-Winter Bordeaux Wine Tour
If you're one of those people who likes to enjoy a mid-winter getaway, this one might sound interesting to you. BK Wines has just announced their first wine tour for 2008. It's open to a select number of people and will take place from February 13-17, 2008 in Bordeaux. If you'd like to go hunting for truffles, learn about duck specialties, and make your own foie gras in addition to touring six wineries, you'll want to read on.

From BK Wine Tours:
The tour includes accommodation at a luxury chateau in the Bordeaux region, a morning with truffle, followed by a sumptuous truffle lunch, a gourmet workshop on how to prepare foie gras and other duck specialities as well as visits to a number of wine producers in Saint Emilion and Bergerac. Four dinners and three lunches, all including wine, are also in the package. The price for this out-of-the-ordinary four day tour is 1240 euro.

As always on the tours organised by BKWine, there will be several wine visits: both to the classic Saint Emilion district in Bordeaux and to the Bergerac region, which has seen a dramatic quality Revival over the last ten years. All in all there will be six winery visits on the program.


I've been to Saint Emilion and it just might be my favorite place on Earth. The winding, hilly, cobblestone streets. The small shops. The meringues. (Did you know the city is known for them?) And, of course, the amazing wine. I envy whoever is lucky enough to get in on this trip!
