Wine Tourism Soars - 28/10/2008


Wine tourism is on the up according to global travel website TripAdvisor who have recently released the 'Top 10 grape getaways where the wine is divine', based on comments from the companies editors and the site's 25m monthly visitors.

While most of the destinations were unsurprising – with Bordeaux, Napa and Tuscany in the top five - Marlborough, New Zealand and Chile's Central Valley also made it onto the list.

'TripAdvisor users have an incredibly diverse array of interests - including wine. We have noticed that many travellers frequently share reviews, opinions and photos of wine destinations and tours in our forums, and the number of people doing so is constantly increasing.' said the company's UK-based spokesperson Amelie Hurst.

The most popular destinations:
1. Bordeaux, France
2. Napa Valley, California
3. Tuscany, Italy
4. Champagne, France
5. Barossa Valley, Australia
6. La Rioja, Spain
7. Sonoma Valley, California
8. Valle Central, Chile
9. Stellenbosch, South Africa
10. Marlborough, New Zealand

In response to our own customers increasingly vociferous demand for Fine Wine Holidays, we've arranged three fantastic wine holidays to Bordeaux and Burgundy, led by the extremely knowledgeable and highly entertaining Jasper Morris MW and Alun Griffiths MW. 

As you would expect from Berrys, these holidays focus on the best of the best, combining bespoke service with peerless advice, all against a backdrop of wonderful wines, great company, delicious food and luxury at every turn. 

This opportunity to see and experience first-hand the magic of Bordeaux and Burgundy as part of an intimate group led by one of Berrys' Masters of Wine, makes these Fine Wine Holidays an unmissable experience for any wine lover.
