We are pleased to announce the two Waud Wine Club tours for 2015. The first in July is to the Rhone Valley where we return with the cars for a 3 day driving and wine tasting trip. The second tour will be a fly\/drive to Barcelona and surrounds in September.<\/p>\n
It is expected that these will both be sell out tours, so we will NOT be offering it on a first come first served basis as usual. We will review the response to the available places in the hope of accommodating everyone. Priority will however be given to members and their other halves in the first instance – it is now expected that all tourists are members of the club.<\/p>\n
Rhone Tour – Wednesday 8th to Saturday 11th July 2015<\/strong><\/p>\n We plan to take 24 tourists and hence 12 cars to the stunning Rhone Valley; the provisional itinerary for this three day trip appears below. This is an unmissable opportunity for the drivers to get their fast cars out on these great French motorways. The Tour Du Vin to the Rhone in 2011 was our first club tour and a great success it was too – so we know the form and have visited some of the proposed growers and venues before. In the last few years have developed more excellent contacts in the Rhone – so are able to open doors to some of the regions most iconic vineyards.<\/p>\n Day 1 will see us meet for lunch in Reims, then steadily head further south east to stay at our hotel for night 1 in Nuits St Georges in the Burgundy region – Le Gentilhommiere<\/a>. This is convenient stop over point where we have stayed before and enjoyed its excellent cuisine!<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t
