TORONTO, ON - Butterfield & Robinson, the world's premier active travel company, will launch new Wine Grand Journeys in 2014. More than biking trips, these oenological odysseys to Germany, France, Spain and Italy epitomize luxury.
Butterfield & Robinson's Wine Grand Journeys amplify the very best of a B&R biking trip, combining amazing rides and exclusive access with the utmost luxury, allowing oenophiles to experience the very best wines as they pedal between world-class vineyards.
"The Wine Grand Journeys have lurked in our thought process for many years," says B&R co-founder George Butterfield. "That first trip in 2011 was a great start and, like our second trip in 2013, combined so many of the hallmarks that make B&R what it is: spectacular riding, intimate access, wonderful travel companions, and of course, some truly spectacular wine."
After the success of the Germany & France Wine Grand Journey, B&R has expanded its portfolio to include the Spain & Bordeaux Wine Grand Journey, featuring a visit to the spectacular Ysios Winery designed by Santiago Calatrava, and the Italy Wine Grand Journey, offering an exclusive glimpse into three of Italy's grandest wine producers: Gaja, Sassicaia and Antinori.
