wine tours
Joining an organised wine tours is one of the surest ways of learning about the whole gamut of wine-producing intrigue and folk-lore, and to enjoy a wide range of wines without the worry of who is going to drive back to your hotel.
There are numerous 'Wine and Champagne Trails' described by local and regional tourism partners that allow you to follow a trail at your own speed and inclination. But you may gain much more by joining a short tour, either as an integral part of your visit to France, or as your sole reason for going in the first place. They do produce some eminently quaffable wines in France, you know!
The number of tour organisers seems to increase each year. Here is a selection, far from comprehensive:
