Provence - A Wine Lover's Dream Come True!
Provence is often overlooked by companies that offer traditional
wine tasting tours, in spite of the excellence of its wines. If
you're a true wine lover and wine fan, this beautiful location
in France offers the most fascinating scenery and, not to
mention, some of the best vineyards around.
In Provence, as everywhere in the Mediterranean, you'll find the
people full of warmth, spontaneity and a "joie de vivre". As you
will soon discover, any of these master oenologists (winemakers)
will be delighted to introduce you to the wines they have become
famous for; and share a little of the region's history with you.
In Provence your days will be filled with sunshine and warmth,
and lush nights, scented with jasmine, lavender and wild thyme -
whether you stay in a bustling, crowded metropolis with all the
modern conveniences, or a turn-of-the-century country guest
house filled with 17th and 18th century antiques. However,
little do outsiders know that winemaking in Provence is a
serious business. Many of the winegrowers here have won the
rights to include the prestigious "AOC" designation (Appellation
d'Origine Controlee) on their bottles of wines. This label
assures the buyer of a guaranteed vintage from the designated
region. In order to win the right to become designated as an
appellation wine, winegrowers much pass rigorous tests and
inspections.
If you are thinking of traveling to the south of France in the
near future, think about including a trip to one of the
vineyards of the 60 winegrowers in the "Cotes de Provence"
region. A small, yet beautiful area, it takes in the departments
of the Var and part of the Bouches-du-Rhone.
Located in the heart of Provence's winemaking region, the
"Maison des Cotes de Provence" boasts an outstanding selection
of appellation wines. The Cotes de Provence winegrowers are
experts in utilizing traditional methods when harvesting and
bottling their wines. Their deep respect for the soil, the
climate and the different varieties of grapes they use comes
through in the quality and taste of each bottle.
During your visit to Provence, you can also arrange to take a
wine tasting course at one of the vineyards where you will learn
a complete understanding of wine: its robe (color), its bouquet
(perfume), its body (strength) and everything you need to know
about service, conservation and more. Not only will you be able
to taste the finest wines, but you will also learn invaluable
winemaking tips you can't learn elsewhere.
For the true wine lover, Provence is definitely a place to visit
- both for the fantastic wines and unforgettable scenery!

You may want to choose your racks in order to have them match the rest of your wine storage solution. The final choices that you make will be affected somewhat by whether or not you are planning to show off your wine cellar to your friends. If you are then your wine storage solutions will need to be a little more coordinated.
So look into the wine racks and other wine storage options that will all look well together. Your wine storage area can look like those of a professional wine collector. It is not hard to do but it can cost you a little money.
Your temporary wine storage options are a little simpler. Just before you serve your wine you will probably want to chill it, this of course depends on the wine. In order to store your wine for chilling you can look into cool wine storage solutions. Wine coolers are easy to find, you can find them in many department stores or wine stores. Even the Internet is a great source for finding these types of wine storage options.
