Pyrenees Wine Region Tour​

The Pyrenees foothills and ranges provide a stunning backdrop to a region that rewards those seeking wines of character and interest.

Explore the wines of the Victorian Pyrenees.

Set amidst the stunning backdrop of the Pyrenees foothills and ranges, this region is a hidden treasure for those searching for distinctive and compelling wines. Famed for its boutique, high-quality offerings, especially the French Bordeaux variety, the Pyrenees will take your wine-tasting journey to new, unforgettable heights.

The region’s flagship fragrant Shiraz and complex Cabernet Sauvignon truly shine here, reflecting the distinct terroir and exceptional care taken in their cultivation and production. While traditionally known for its red wines, the Pyrenees has broadened its repertoire and emerged as a producer of exceptional white wines. Methode Traditionale Champenoise, Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, and Riesling now add to the depth and diversity of the wines on offer.

Further enriching the wine mosaic of the region, new varietals such as the Italian Sangiovese and Spanish Tempranillo have begun to emerge from several wineries, bringing exciting additions to the wine landscape. When visiting any of the wineries in the region, you will be able to feel the intimate, personal nature of their production. The winemakers are often available to discuss their personal approaches to winemaking, allowing visitors to delve deeper into the journey from vine to bottle.

Our tour transports you to signature wineries across the region, providing opportunities to taste an array of these delightful wines. Alongside the wine tastings, the tour includes a scrumptious cheese platter and lunch at a picturesque winery restaurant or similar location, providing a true taste of the Pyrenees. As a souvenir of your journey, you will receive a complimentary gift pack with a bottle of Bordeaux-style wine, a true embodiment of the region’s winemaking prowess. Be prepared for a day of captivating flavours and enchanting landscapes as you explore the wine wonders of the Pyrenees.
