\n Bordeaux..<\/strong>
\n<\/a> Then you probably think of the world famous wine. The wine capital of France<\/a> includes even more well-known wines; Medoc near the ocean or Saint-Emilion. Visit the wine estates of the C\u00f4tes du Rh\u00f4ne<\/strong> or Burgundy.<\/strong> By bike you will explore the vineyards of Alsace<\/strong> or drive along the Loire<\/strong> with its many castles and wine cooperatives. And of course the Champagne houses are<\/strong> not missing on one of the many ‘routes des vins’ (wine routes). Where the world can’t find you..<\/em>.<\/p>\n
\n Brittany<\/strong>
\n<\/a> where the cider<\/strong> is manufactured and consumed in large numbers. This sparkling apple wine is very hip and can have different colors and alcohol percentages. Autumn is the time of the apple harvest and a good time for a trip along the cider route of Normandy.<\/strong> In Brittany,<\/strong> the most famous le cidre de Cornouaille AOP is made. Continue your trip to Burgundy<\/strong> where you can spend the night among the grapevils, at prestigious vineyards, imposing castles and star restaurants. Spend the night in luxury at Le Clos du Colombier’s famous Pommard wine.<\/strong> Go back in time at the historic Le Castel Tr\u00e8s Girard; famous wines of Morey-Saint-Denis.<\/strong> It is very special to sleep in a wine barrel named after a famous grape variety. After a tour of the old vineyard and wine cellars, stay in a ‘Chardonnay’ or ‘Pinor Noir’. The famous champagne houses in northern France also offer a lot of variation in overnight stays. With a phenomenal view of the lush winelands, the
\n Royal Champagne Hotel & Spa <\/strong>
\n<\/a>is an absolute must. The Bergerac<\/strong> located in the south of the Dordogne also offers the wine lover many possibilities. Large wineries, old wine cellars and of course many vineyards. The Montbazillac wine cooperative is worth while because of its beautiful historic castle and fine wines. In sunny
\n Provence <\/strong>
\n<\/a>is enjoying a fresh ros\u00e9 wine. Since ancient times, vineyards have been planted around the cities of Marseille, Nice and Antibes, making it the oldest wine region in France. The half-timbered houses, picturesque villages and lush vineyards<\/strong> are not to be missed in Alsace where you will also find the German influence in the beautiful wines. By bike you can follow the famous wine route starting in Strasburg and ending at the countless cellars of the wines of the Haut-Koenigsbourg.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
