Wine Tours In The Languedoc

There's a lot to keep you busy while visiting the Languedoc.

You've got oodles of French culture in cities such as Carcassonne, Nîmes and Montpellier. There's Roman antiquity at sites like the Pont du Gard and the Oppidum d'Enserune. If you want to kick back and relax, there are miles and miles of Mediterranean beaches. If fresh air, hiking and river rafting excite you, head on up to the Haut Languedoc.

However, if you're like me, then the pursuit of great food and wine is the main reason to even bother boarding a crowded airplane, hurtling through space and time while trying to eat crappy airline food and ignore the kid behind you kicking the back of your seat only to land many hours later in a foreign place, disoriented and rumpled.



Luckily there is now a wine expert (and a great friend of ours) offering Wine Tours in the Languedoc. Juliet Bruce-Jones hold a prestigious Masters of Wine degree - one of only 246 in the world!
I've been fortunate enough to take a tasting trip with Juliet, attended Vinisud 2006 with her and have spent many, long lunches at her home, doing my best to help empty out taste the wine in her vast cellar. She's a delightful woman who loves to share her extensive knowledge of wine with others.

So if you're coming to the Languedoc, either for sun, for a dip in the sea or for soaking up some culture, make sure to save some time to learn about the region's fabulous wine with Juliet.
