In vino veritas, used to say the old Romans. Beer and spirits were practically unknown, and Roman parties and orgies were heavily relying on wine and good food.

Today the wine still has a certain noblesse. Good wines are old and expensive, thus differentiating from the much more popular and cheaper beer. Nevertheless, in certain places of our planet there is still a strong tradition of wine. Vineyards all you can see, wine farmers, and lots of delicious tasty wines. There no one drinks beer, it would be a shame. Drinking a glass of good wine there is next to ritual and the best way to socialize. Beware the persons who don’t drink and the persons who are too silent, says a proverb from these countries.

There are many wine afficionados among us, as the wine means pleasure, never ending stories and a good opportunity for meeting new people. Taking part to wine tours could be a life event for normally people, but not for the wine afficionados. Wine afficionados go to wine tours more times a year, trying desperately to find the best wines and the best food worldwide, as wine tasting is not possible without good food! Usually during a wine tour is normally to have at least one time daily a  four dishes menu, while you can taste different sorts of wines and learn about the soul of wine. Take very much care on your sense of taste if you want become a wine afficionado: don’t smoke, don’t eat too hot or too cold. This the way the real pro does.

The best wine tours can be found in many countries of the world, but first of all within the boundaries of the former Roman Empire. France, Italy, Spain, Portugal,Romania have a long tradition in the wine farming, as also wine tasting and wine tours. Greece, Croatia and Tunisia are also coming in discussion. About the New World, there are three main destinations for wine tours and wine vacations: Chile and Argentina, Australia and New Zealand, and the Californian vineyards from Napa Valley and Sonoma.

When going to a wine tour, remember one basic thing: avoid the groups which are larger than 10 persons, as the main target is socialization and you need to speak to all your mates during the meals.

And now let’s get to the Best Wine Tours, I still have some tips and tricks for you.

1.Best Wine Tours in France you can find in Bordeaux. There are so many vineyards all around, and a lot of wine to drink, but you must get la creme de la creme! Try to find the VIP Tour, which is very exclusively and not cheap. Taste the best crus of the region: Margaux, Latour, Haut Brion and Rotschild. Being located in one of the region castles, you will feel really like a prince.

Notice, please, the special taste of the local wines, and even the special taste of the Muscat, due to weather, soil and altitude.
