Great Cellar Tours and Wine Tastings to Enjoy Cellar tours and wine tastings are appropriate for small groups, corporate clients or even couples looking for a wonderful getaway. Whether you are visiting wine country or just a local, there are various types of wine cellar tours you can avail of both in the United States and Abroad. No matter what the weather is, you will soon find out that wine cellar tours give you the advantage of experience cool climates with sea breezes that are ideal for grape growing. More than ever, wineries are constructing cellars within the ground to serve as wine storage, as this is one way of keeping wine cool. It is a very cost effected method of constructing cool environments in hot climates. Newer wineries are building cellars and at the same time, old wineries that have been around for quite some time are opening their doors to guests in order to offer a more complete experience when it comes to tasting wines. Some wineries offer more than just a cellar tour. There are some that offer wine and food tasting experiences within the wine cellar itself. For instance Sonoma County’s Dry Creek Valley features Bella Vineyards which feature wine cellars built within caves. Another winery in Oregon called Domaine Serene has great cellars within the grounds fed by gravity and not open to the public. You need to call ahead to make sure to book the cellar tour along with the sessions of wine tastings. Russian River’s Gary Farrell features private cellar tours that include wines paired with specially chosen cheeses an hour before they actually open the doors to the public. Wine maps with winery profiles of a given wine region will help you plan. You can design wine tours for corporate events as a luxury getaway in one day with stops for food and maybe a picnic. Remember when planning a wine cellar tour that you might not want to go on late August to mid October due to the fact that the tour of the cellar might be changed. This is because these months are wine harvest season and the cellar will mostly be in use. A better idea would be to plan a wine cellar tour on Barrel Tasting weekends usually held late winter or early spring. Some wineries that offer cellar tours even let you taste wines directly from the barrel.
