unforgettable experiences
At Wine Retreats, we focus on three things: Great moments, great people, and a new way to experience wine. We believe that wine should be accessible, down-to-earth, and enjoyed in community with one another. Whether you're a wine enthusiast, collector, hobbyist, or professional, wine is the bridge that connects all of us.
Our luxury retreats take you on an exclusive, behind-the-scenes journey through wine country – exploring local wineries & vineyards and personally meeting winemakers in their cellars – taking you to parts of France’s wine regions off the beaten path. Anyone can tour the big houses. At Wine Retreats, we focus on authentic, local experiences that you can’t get on traditional wine tours.
 
Experience it for yourself at our September 15-20, 2025 Wine Retreats in Champagne.
