Dear wine friends,

it is only half time of the year 2016. The three spring tours 2016 (Burgundy, Germany North, Germany East) were fabulous and I tremendously enjoyed travelling and tasting top notch wines with my fellow wine aficionados. The fall tours (Germany South, Bordeaux) are booked up. I am now scheduling the tours for the year 2017 and I would like to give you the heads-up on the exact dates for you to have ample time to plan your travels.

Tickets already get scarce and I have to buy tickets asap. Please let me know your interest in this tour soon for me to get enough tickets and good seats.

Looking forward to travelling with many of you in 2017,
