Best Walking & Wine Tours
With warm days, pure air, refreshing onshore breezes, and undulating landscapes, the ingredients for great wine also make for seriously fantastic walking country. It’s a win-win situation.
Italy: Wine and strolling
See it: Tuscany’s undulating hills are the stuff that dreamy strolls are made of. Imagine breathtakingly gorgeous Renaissance cities, medieval towns, and avenues lined with cypress trees that wind through vineyards.
Find it out: This excellent blend of Tuscan wines, mostly made from the Sangiovese grape, is produced in the Chianti region, which encompasses the city provinces of Florence and Siena. You’ll detect notes of cherry, deep crimson fruits, herbs, and just a tad bit of smoke and balsamic. It feels like entering the best Italian deli in town!
Give it a shot: The nose has hints of spicy woodsmoke. The taste is bright and sour in a pleasant way.

Portugal: strolling and sipping wine
Port’s Historic Heartland
Look at it: The World Heritage Site of UNESCO The vertiginously terraced valleys of the Douro Valley rise above the sinewy river beneath it. this is the nation of ports. discover: Grapes for port come from the Douro region and undergo fortification with a neutral spirit. as a result, the sugar and alcohol content increase. styles encompass Ruby (stored in steel tanks, usually sweeter), Tawny (aged in wooden barrels), and LBV (Late Bottled Vintage), bottled four to six years after harvest.
Give it a shot: Dried fruit, bramble, plum; a fruity nose full of cherry and blackberries.
In the Prosecco Hills, strolling while sipping wine
Observe it: The terrain begins to rise sharply to meet the Dolomites just north of Venice. one of the best wine regions in the world is located here. italy’s oldest wine route, named the “Prosecco Road,” features centuries-old vineyards along its picturesque journey. find it: Prosecco can have a slight fizz or a sparkling quality. the DOCG designation signifies the highest-quality authentic Prosecco, made exclusively from Glera grapes in the Conegliano-Valdobbiadene region—the starting point of our journey. its flavor is fresher, creamier, and lighter than champagne’s.
Give it a shot: subtle notes of apple, peach, and rose petals in an elegant nose. This Prosecco, from a single vineyard called Torri di Credazzo, is very good!
