Your trip to French wine country, designed by two people who live here.
Private wine days and custom itineraries across France.
Planning a good trip here comes down to fluency more than research: the language, the relationships, and the feel for how the country actually works. That comes from living it, and it shapes every trip we design.
HOW IT WORKS
We start with a conversation.
A 60-minute consultation where we learn what you’re drawn to, how you like to travel, and what kind of experience would feel right. We listen more than we talk.
We design your trip.
A detailed, day-by-day plan built around your group. Producer visits, restaurants, timing, routes, cultural stops. Everything considered, nothing left to chance.
You travel with confidence.
Whether one of us is guiding you or your driver is taking you from door to door, you will have everything you need. Contacts, reservations, contingency plans, and one of us on the other end of the phone.
If you want wine to come home. There is no obligation to buy, and we take no commission from any domaine. If you do find bottles you love, we help you choose, collect from each cellar, consolidate in Beaune with an exporter we have worked with for years, and brief the shipper with every bottle and its notes, so one delivery arrives at your door. It is part of supporting your trip from start to finish.
SERVICES
CONSULTATION
€99 · 60 minutes
Expert guidance on your trip. You receive specific recommendations and a written summary. The fee applies toward any service you book.
PRIVATE WINE DAYS
Priced by region
One of us beside you for the whole day, from your hotel or train to the last cellar. Producer visits, lunch worth the region, and every question answered. See pricing for each region.
TRAVEL DESIGN
From €750/day
Everything designed, booked, and coordinated. Producer appointments, restaurants, driver, and ongoing trip support. You show up and the trip runs. If you want wine shipped home, we handle that too.
Many clients combine the two: a designed trip with private wine days where they matter most. Every trip starts the same way: a conversation.

START HERE
Tell us about your trip.
No commitment. Just enough for us to start a conversation.
I moved to France in 2017. First Paris, then Burgundy, now Lyon. My husband Nicolas and I have built a life around wine, and we’ve turned that into something we can share. Every trip we design is personal because this place is personal to us.
