Wine Tours for the Deeply Curious

Come discover Burgundy with us this September.

The morning light slants gold across the vines. You're standing in a premier cru vineyard, cool air carrying the scent of limestone and damp earth, as your sommelier guide explains exactly why this slope, and not the one twenty meters away, produces one of the most sought-after wines in the world.

This is an Elliano Wine Journey.

Wine Education, Elevated

Every Elliano Wine Journey is built on a simple conviction: the best way to understand wine is to be in the place where it's made, with someone who can connect what you're seeing, smelling, and tasting to the deeper story underneath.

That means daily wine education, not as an add-on, but as the through-line of your entire experience. Whether we're walking the storied slopes of the Côte d'Or, exploring a 12th-century cellar, or settling into a leisurely lunch at a village bistro, every moment is an opportunity to deepen your understanding of terroir, tradition, and technique.

You'll return home with more than photographs. You'll have a framework for appreciating wine that stays with you; a way of tasting, thinking, and choosing that transforms every future bottle into a richer experience.

Beyond the Tasting Note

Maybe you've imagined yourself here before: standing in a centuries-old domaine, watching a winemaker draw Pinot Noir from barrel, swirling it in your glass while asking the question you've always wanted to ask and actually understanding the answer.

Or maybe it's simpler than that. Maybe you just want to walk through the vineyards you've read about on back labels for years and finally see what all the fuss is about.

Either way, you're in the right place.

On an Elliano Wine Journey, you'll learn to read a vineyard the way a vigneron does, understanding how slope, soil, and micro-climate shape what ends up in your glass. You'll discover why appellations exist and what they actually tell you. You'll taste the difference between villages, premiers crus, and grands crus not because someone told you there is a difference, but because you can perceive it yourself.

This is wine education designed for you: rigorous but never dry, structured but always flexible, and grounded in the belief that real knowledge comes from connecting ideas to lived experience.

Luxury without Pretension

You'll stay in historic properties with real character: châteaux and boutique hotels chosen for their sense of place, not just their star ratings. You'll dine exceptionally well. You'll travel in comfort.

But luxury, for us, isn't about excess. It's about removing obstacles so you can be fully present for the experience. The right accommodations. The right pace. The right guide. Everything in service of the journey itself.

What does that look like in practice?

It means waking up in a place that's been welcoming guests for centuries, where the stone walls hold stories and the gardens invite a quiet morning walk before the day begins. It means meals that become part of your education. It means a pace calibrated to engagement, not exhaustion. And it means traveling in a small group, where every question gets answered, every curiosity gets explored, and no one disappears into a crowd.

This is luxury as hospitality should be: gracious, attentive, and always in service of why you came in the first place.
