Wine-Making Experience with Gourmet Odyssey
Participate in making your own organic wine!

Learn to make wine with the wine-maker by your side
From the vine to the bottle, an organic winemaker must master all of the techniques necessary to cultivate and produce the best possible grapes in the vineyard, and to then transform the harvest into quality wine through the work in the cellar. With Gourmet Odyssey, you’ll get behind the scenes and participate in the making of your own personalised bottles of wine.

Participative wine-making courses at the winery with the wine-makers
Go further than a typical wine tasting course in a city centre hotel or wine merchant. Get away for a weekend break to France, visit one of our partner vineyards, spend the day with the winemaker, and explore one of the beautiful French wine growing regions.

What’s involved in a wine-making experience day?
Each wine-making course offered by Gourmet Odyssey puts you in the hot seat to get involved during one of the key moments in making your wine, starting with the work in the vineyard, then the harvest and fermentation phases, and ending with the skill needed to age and blend the wine before it is ready to be bottled. You will also get the opportunity to put your wine tasting skills to the test. Once you have participated in a Gourmet Odyssey wine experience day, you’ll never drink wine in the same light again!
The wine-making experience courses last a whole day from 9:30 to 16:00, and are each valid for two people, making for a great excuse to get away for a weekend with someone special. A wine-maker’s meal and tasting of the winery’s wines are naturally included in the programme.
