Behind the scenes in France for harvest 2024! Had a fascinating experience with winemakers and their teams working the grape harvest in the Rhône and Loire Valleys. So grateful to them for taking time out of their busy days to include us!
There is no subsitute for traveling to the vineyard and spending time with the people behind the wine label. If you want to get an inside glimpse into the life of a vintner, join us on one of our small group wine tours or create a group of your own! Send us a DM for info. 🍷

We all know that the tulip wine glass is ideal for drinking sparkling wine.
Well, the producers of Franciacorta went a step further…
They designed their own tulip glasses with scratches at the base of the bowl to increase longevity of the bubbles.
The Franciacorta tulip glass is the official wine glass certified by the Franciacorta Consortium. These glasses are strictly made in Italy and are the only ones to have the Consortium’s logo etched on the foot of the glass.
This fact is one of the many things we learned on our recent trip to Franciacorta. There is just no substitute for visiting a wine region in person!

Celebrate Saint Joseph’s Day with the delicious Italian pastry, Zeppole!
Saint Joseph’s Day is an important feast day in Italy as well as Poland, Spain, the Philippines, Malta and more.
Some say the Zeppole pastry originated in Ancient Rome, but the first recipe found dates back to the 1800’s. No matter the origin, people throughout Italy enjoy this scrumptious ball of fried dough, filled with choux cream and topped with a preserved cherry.
You can find Zeppole in bakeries throughout the U.S. where they are often called St. Joseph cakes 😄

Some of the world’s most famous wine regions are also great cycling travel destinations, allowing you to combine two of your favorite activities into one trip. From steeply terraced vineyards to gentle rolling hills, wine regions offer a diverse – and stunning – backdrop for exploring on two wheels.
And don’t think you need to be an expert cyclist! You can enjoy a bike tour even as a beginner. (An e-bike really comes in handy for those hills…)
These 5 wine regions are AMAZING for bike tours: Burgundy, France; Wachau Valley, Austria; Tuscany, Italy; Willamette Valley, Oregon; and Chile, South America.

Fight me.
I learned this on my first visit to the Champagne region. A flute may preserve the bubbles (and look pretty), but its narrow design restricts the aromas. Use a wider glass to enjoy the full expression of a sparkling wine.
This demonstrates why there is no substitute for visiting a wine region in person - so much to learn from the people actually growing the grapes and making the wine!
